Anyone know what’s up with inside technicians? Seems like a massive amount of new hires over the last year.
I’m sure they are saving the company money, but do we think the hiring spree was to find top performers that also work cheap and then cut everyone else? The layoff is happening next week according to every third post here.
Performance review but no compensation?
Was this new this year or just me? Only part of the performance review I care about is compensation. Who cares about how we all got to an average rating?

Working from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. every day with barely any breaks. Is this just me, or are your workdays just as crazy? How do people survive this?
