I just watched someone I work with be informed at 4:30 PM on a Friday afternoon that his contract has been terminated immediately and that this was his last day. This individual came into QTS about 1.5 years ago and did an incredible job creating and launching a new product for QTS in just under 5 months. This product is expected to generate millions of dollars for QTS in the years to come. He was a stand-up guy, got along great with everyone in the company, and did a really good job with his product. To make matters worse, he and his wife are expecting twins in 2 months. Unreal that you could do this to someone that was so dedicated to a company, even as a contractor. He didn't violate any code of conduct that I'm aware of, so this is just baffling to me and everyone here at QTS. He did ask to telecommute for about 3 weeks after his twins were born to help out his wife and supposedly the COO and CTO of the company didn't like that. Their comment was "Why does he need to stay home? We didn't when we had our kids" It's 2015, are you kidding me?!? My advice, stay very far away from this company. They obviously do not care about people, at all. Truly unbelievable and now has me and my co-workers thinking of leaving ASAP because of this. Me and my co-workers are speechless. This is not how a great human being should be treated, period.
