Thread regarding ADP layoffs

ADP targets employees with health problems - purposely and illegally including them in RIF's

If you don't think ADP aggressively lays off employees that have health issues you have your head in the sand. I worked for ADP for over 5 years with a steady progression in responsibilities including multiple promotions but when I began suffering and eventually diagnosed with a SERIOUS health problem and had to endure regular treatments that were hell (which of course impacted my attendance) they decided to "reorganize" and I got laid off. I asked if they could at least leave me on the insurance for a few months to help bridge the gap and they said, and I quote exactly, "We are not in the business of providing charitable care for former employees." I wish I was making this up! Coincidently the job that was eliminated (my job) was resisted as open (shocking right?) on the careers section of ADP.com and eventually filled just a couple of months later.

I would give more info but would prefer to keep my anonymity for obvious reasons. Hard lesson to learn that loyalty isn't a two way street with ADP and it certainly forever changed the way I look at my relationship with future employers.

However, I do believe that you "get what you give" and the people that discarded me like trash at a time when I needed them to reciprocate the loyalty I had shown them will eventually "get what they give" and I will continue to treat others as I would like to be treated because it is the RIGHT THING to do. I wish ADP and other corporations (ADP unfortunately isn't unique in this regard) weren't absent from school the day common decency and morality were taught.

Who cares about decency and morality? ADP has a business to run and make money. You don't count and other ADP associates don't count. It's all about making money and not coddling employees (actually exploiting them by subjecting them to unnecessary pressures and neverending uncompensated overtime work). If employees can't keep up with the severe workload, due to health issues or whatever, then out the door they go. I saw many colleagues that developed health problems and were then swiftly forced out of the company. I was fortunate that I stayed healthy and was able to work that crazy schedule. So glad that I am finally out of there and enjoying some peace.

Loyalty is definitely a one way street at ADP. Employees are expected to be loyal to management as their due, but management does not have to be loyal to its employees.
