My Coordinator made Racial Slurs about Martin Luther King and about the only black person in our department, on MLK Day! So bad I wouldn't dare type them here! I took it to my Manager and he said he would talk to him. Shortly after my Coordinator was promoted to Supervisor! I asked my manger about this he said I talked to him and told him we need to be good supervisors I filed an Ethics Complaint which was suppose to remain anonymous, it went to HR and immediately all the management in my department began to treat me different, shunning me, talking behind my back, and refusing to even make eye contact with me. HR conducted an investigation, they called several of us in, said not to talk about it to anyone. Immediately I had co-workers coming to me asking me what I had done. After admitting I was the one who filed the complaint, most of them said they backed me up on all the complaints I filed. Yet to this day nothing has changed. I could go on and on with stories, reasons why I am here at Indeed.com. Run Do Not even consider working for these people!"
