This is a company that would do what ever it takes to move up or have someone hired to replace someone because they are friends no regard for current employees if your not in the circle of the Brown Nosers.
I worked there for almost two years and never had an disiplinary action every
verbal nor written but they sure let me go without any prior disipline so someones bestfriend can have my position. Oh yeah did I mention that I am pregnant thats the fuel they really needed. I was out at the end of Aug. for a week in the hospital due to dehdration and morning sickness well they found out
and decided a month later that I was not dependable any more because I might have morning sickness and miss a day when I might be needed.
After being in the hospital for a week at the end of Aug, I only missed 1 day and was late 1 more day since Oct.6th which was the day the terminated me. Also this happened the day before I had a Dr. appt.
And through this they brought some girl in there to be interveiwed and she said she did not know what she was appling for but I knew ( my position ) while I was still working there. So then I find out that she is a best friend of someone that works there inwhich he had been asking me for a copy of my office key incase Im out with morning sickness well I could see though his manipulation.
So I called my boss and asked her about the situation of someone being hired for my position and told her who was interveiwing her,and about the person asking for a copy of my office key which has nothing to do with his position so why would he need to be in my office? she said she did not know and that she would find out. She ask me if I was going to able to be there daily for 8 hrs and I assured her that I could be and she said if not we can lay you off untill you feel better but I told her no and that there is no problem with me being everyday as scheduled adn she ok I will let everyone in the office know. She never got back to me about this and this was around the 1st week of Sept.
So here comes Big Man from Tacoma to be their scapegoat as he put it to hand me my termination form. When I seen it I laughed and said this was bullshit as well as letting them know I know who you hired for my position and he tried to play dumb go figure thats what they all do! And this happened on Oct 6th 2009.They waited a whole month to let me stay just to fire me behind my back!
Almost two years of thier bullshit politices that I dont play and a very loyal employee team player what a waste of devotion to a company that will step on you if you dont agree or reform to the High and Mighty. I dont recommend anyone to work for this company if you have morals and values cause they will rob you of them and if not they will fire you anyways. And they dont keep there word about reviews, raises, bonuses or anything they say what ever you want to hear thats about it. Almost 2yrs and no raise 1 review into the sixth month of working there and none since. Very bad customer and employee service.
I am blessed not to work for west coast viynl anymore I feel better about myself knowinig I am not contributing to the unethical procedures that they stand by.
Good luck to those who are approuched for a job opportunity just think of the angel and the devil on either shoulder.
