Well, yeah. Welcome to working for a tech billionaire.
complete with a nondisclosure agreement
Those are a scourge.
NDA's are basically financial terrorism in their current state; not the competition enabler and anti-espionage tool they're made out to be.
They basically equal the threat of "You aren't allowed to tell the truth about any unethical, immoral, or criminal actions you witness or engage in under threat of financial destruction by a corporate legal team"
The NDA obviously doesn't state it for criminal actions, but either way it results in a chilling effect on the whistleblowing of all suspected criminal actions.
The last job I had one at, I played dumb and never signed it. But since I ended to leaving after 4 months I’m not sure what would’ve happened in the long run. I think I might have gotten away with it because he never asked about it and I still got healthcare and cobra after quitting.
Some of these canvassers didn’t even know what they were signing up for. Many of them were driven around in the back of U-Haul vans without seatbelts. Pretty sad all around
Call it what it is... human trafficking.
It sounds like they hired some magazine crews, the scumbags that entrap teens into door-knocking for subscription sales. The tactics of withholding food, lodging, and pay are well documented in that kind of scam.
recruits weren't informed until after signing the contract, complete with a nondisclosure agreement, it was a Musk-backed GOP canvass for Trump.
Most campaigns attract volunteers who believe in the canidate, others hide who they are until contracts are signed.
Members of the face eating party surprised that leopards ate their face
Jeez. Cult members being treated badly but still probably love their golden man? Call me shocked.
Christ on a cracker I'm not shocked in the least but damn.
After reading this I'm SUPER HAPPY that Elon Musk will get a GOVERNMENT ROLE EFFECTING ALL OF OUR LIVES if Trump wins! Elon Musk OBVIOUSLY cares about Honesty and the Working Class!
Nobody deserves to be abused.
Holy shit. I think they tried to talk to me today. The speed at which NO THANK YOU GOODBYE came out of my mouth surprised even me.
Noooooooo waaaaay /s
