Company is now hiring
Hiring after mass layoffs and terminations does look completely wrong. Are we not still in the middle of a cost saving pandemic !
Do not patronize is the best retribution !
Find you have been disposed of, like a used tissue ? Do the same to the corporations , products and services. The corporation will then practice what they preach.

Family of 3 (H, W and a kid)
No such family, just bull
Advertising hiring while firing in a pandemic is unjust. Do not believe social media at the firm. No family throws you out the door when you have not even packed your bag. A disfunctional family would. Run far from this company and fast ! — read more

CITS Canon, Chesapeake VA
I know of three people laid-off, but no one knows how many. My guess is around a hundred out of 500 people, many with 20+ years. It's the hush-hush part that is disconcerting because they are corporate, so everything goes through hundreds of lawyers... — read more
