"The company was great when I first started and felt as though I would retire here. However Covid-19 came along and the company made no effort to retain or even furlough workers and just told me that my position was being eliminated. The new President started on Jan 1 and perhaps this was part of his master plan. Although I received a severance package there was no warning for myself or anyone on my team. This entire incident was handled very poorly. The company (at a corporate level) prides itself on how it supports local communities and what a great corporate citizen they are but when it comes down to treating their existing employees they come up woefully short....especially in a situation like this! They let all of these people (myself included) in the middle of the worst pandemic in 100 years where job prospects were practically non existent. I wish I could say I was the only one that was treated like this but it was across the board."
"I had the opportunity to grow my skill sets in areas not covered by my degree such as networking and designing a control test bench."
