(3,163 posts)I don't know what your experiance is, perhaps you will enlighten me how it disproves what my wife is presently engaged in as a Vice President of an HR subsudiary of the world's largest temporary manpower agency.
Cox Communications is not a small company, and the positions they are transferring are not executive positions. They are the men and women who ask "How may I help you?" when you make a customer service call for television or internet service.
The post to which I responded said that "If the job moves these days, the corporation sure as hell isn't going to pay a dime toward the employee's moving expenses..." I responded that "sometimes they do" and gave an example of a company that is doing so. I added my wife's expertise and said that she has told me that moving expenses are not uncommon. She handles all levels of employees, including the telephone operators at Cox.
I'm sorry not to jump on the thread's bandwagon and engage in the hate rant with everyone else. I apologize for raining on your parade by pointing out that there is one large corporation which is not totally evil.
