Retaliates against Loyal Employees who report discrimination

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

no pros of working for unethical leadership who retaliate against their associates for being victims of discrimination.

Cons

HR retaliates against honest loyal associates for reporting unethical leadership within the organization. CEO ignored all direct contact about unethical leadership within his organization and supports HR retaliations and wrongful terminations for reporting unethical leadership. This unethical leadership will do whatever it takes to protect the organization at all costs no matter what associate is abused in their efforts to covert their dirt. Horrible place to work, they will be going out of business soon because Karma has them by their own Rubber band balls.
