I'd say our culture of taking care of eachother is alive and well based on not giving in to the company now and hosing everyone.
Agree completely.
This "ask" by the company was so poorly constructed, I don't even know where to start.
No furlough numbers.
No financial data.
No realistic timeline to make a decision.
Ridiculous offer.
It is a textbook Ford/Harrison "don't let a crisis go to waste" play.
How about we wait until after the election and associated political posturing concerning stimulus and then start talking.
Until then, you are just wasting our time and yours.
No concessions. Not like this.
It's funny, I was all on board to save Dean by making tough choices that would, at least temporarily, impact me financially. Now I am a hard no after the last couple company comms.
