As for their approach dealing with the crisis, it's a very caring, sharing, we are in this together. News bulletins almost every day, top management taken a 20%reduction in their salaries. They're a Fortune 500 company and very staff focused, they want to keep the staff but I feel that they may consider furloughing staff..
Getting good staff once they're gone is a very expensive exercise that I'm sure they won't want to play out. |
Lol sounds like my job change last year. I left my old company for the same reason. Plus the new job kind of landed in my lap at the perfect time, with less travel and more money.
I guess I'm just cynical regarding large companies. I used to work for a Fortune 500 and the lip service was usually just that.
But good luck and hope that works out!
