Support is provided from end to end and our people, regardless of the role are well rewarded if there's any change that's going to affect employees.
Badly and illegally. Often they are constructive, people aren’t given opportunity to interview. They try to make execs sign gagging orders and non competes so they get the bonuses they still deserve. Ron Mobed is a really nasty piece of work. A bully who will at first charm you, then make you feel inadequate, and then shout at you/threaten you if you don’t get in line. Rotten to the core
