When I was at Quicken Loans, we worked ridiculous hours! It was all day every day. When I first started, they had schedules posted with a 50 hour work week. Shortly after I was there, I asked the Sales Manager where the schedule was and he said they took it down because "you are not supposed to work more than 40 hours a week"... I could go on-and-on about the work environment... Cocaine use, sexual harassment, verbal abuse, coercion, fraud, bait and switch coaching, etc. The work environment is not the key issue I want to bring to everyone's attention. The FLSA lawsuit is what needs to be discussed. I want to bring to everyone's attention that dan gilbert and quicken loans hired an attorney to solicit the dept of labor for the 2006 opinion letter regarding mortgage employees exemption status! That's right folks. Quicken Loans and Dan Gilbert paid someone to "bend the law in their favor!" Here is the excerpt from workcforce.com "Quicken co-counsel Robert Davis, a partner at Mayer Brown who works from New York and Washington and is also an attorney for the Washington-based Mortgage Bankers Association, obtained the original 2006 Labor Department opinion in response to a query for the association. Attorneys for the employees argue he actually used that role to obtain a ruling that could undercut the Quicken employees." Dan Gilbert thinks he is above the law! How does he walk free?!?!? Someone in Federal Government, PLEASE TAKE ACTION AGAINST HIM!
