I made the huge mistake of accepting an offer to work for this guy, Steven Smith, owner of Smith Manufacturing, back in January.
After being there for close to 60 days and see employees come and go I started to wonder what was going on, then it happened to me. I was a victim of verbal abuse. This guy treated people with no respect and value no one. It was easy for people to just leave than put up with his abusive attitude. They made no effort what so ever to hold on to good employees and examing what was causing them to leave.in top of all this, he refused to accept my resignation and ask his 'loyal' employees to escort me out.
I left and it took me close to 2 months to collect all the money that this company owed me. I was force to contact Gevity, the payroll company they use and make them aware of what was happening and thanks to them I was able to optain my money. I lost money they never paid, including bonuses and my last expense report for the last event I organized for them.
I look back with sadness not only because I wasted 60 days of my life with this people but because I will always remember that bad experience I have from that company. I wish someone could do something to shut those people down and put and end to the constant abuse and mistreatment to good people and most importantly, naive people that come to work there with the best attitude and wiliness only to realize in a few days the horrible place they have chosen to work in.
Last and least I really hope one day one of our inspectors from the dept. Of health decides to drive by and inspect this place and I am sure they will then shut them down. This guys Steven, collected the money from the insurance company after hurricane Wilma damage the roof of the company and sat on it, after 5 months of the hurricane hit, the carpet was moldy and I am sure there was mildew and mold on the wall too, you couldn't spend a single week in this place without snizzing or getting sick.
Thank you all for ready and I really hope everyone reads this before they accept any offer from this company.
Special Note to Steven Smith, you can keep the money you owe me and try to use it torwads some anger management classes. What you do to people is ilegal and against all code of ethics, but of course, you sure no nothing about ethics.
