I'm not really one for the "greed is good mantra", but I do think it's really interesting where each person is willing to balk and vocally oppose what someone does to profit. In this case, I believe you're implying that you oppose at will employment (which I think is a reasonable stance).
- eitally 11y agoI do oppose at will employment. I also oppose abuse of the WARN act by so many corporations doing mass reductions in force. I thirdly oppose unethical business practices, even if it means not maximizing "shareholder value". There have been so many small pharmas snatched up by the big guys the past few years, all in the name of buying drug patents to maximize shareholder value because conducting original research is "too expensive". Those small pharmas are made of people, good people, doing good, valuable work (often original research, ironically). To me, the way the pharmaceutical industry has been behaving over the past decade -- between this and the ubiquitous inversion mergers to move HQs to Ireland -- is unacceptable.
