Fifth Third Bank
Screwed employees big time

In the fall of Fifth Third bank announced its takeover of First National Bank of Florida in Naples (some people had left good jobs to come work at First National just a week before the announcement). Fifth Third announced that it would be about four months for the merger to be completed and layoffs to occure. That it would appreciate people to remain working hard up to the last day and then they would receive a severance package (which turned out to be about 2 weeks pay, but that is beside the point).

Many employees were supporting families and could not afford to take chances so they looked for other positions. Some people found them.

As it turned out, everyone at the headquarters, except vice presidents, were laidoff.

Those people who resigned before the last day, even though they gave 2 weeks notice and always received sterling performance reviews, were forever barred from employment with Fifth Third and Human Resources marked them as left without notice or poor performance and ineligible for rehire to take revenge on them, thus screwing them when trying to find future employment.

Please let them know you feel about this unethical behavior.
