Gulf Pacific Inc, Arthur Vanlandingham
Continues to Rip Off Employees an arrogant and cavalier attitude

Arthur Vanlandingham is a snake that needs to be legally put out of business. He continues not to pay consultant employees what they are owed. He lies to them, telling them that he "changed their contracts and no longer has to pay them." There are no less than six consultants as of this date that are owed money (up to $7500) for compensation he is refusing to pay, as well as a key executive that he owes over $70,000 to.

He has an arrogant and cavalier attitude that he is "above the law" and the "law does not apply to him."

Additionally, he is refusing to pay his employees overtime, rather he thinks he can simply put them on salary and then expect them to work over time without due compensation. Additionally, he is refusing to pay vendors when they have contracted to do certain work for him... He continues to cheat everyone around... Great business practices Arthur!

He has also recently, with his side kick, Dan Held, reduced the compensation to all consultants to $45 per hour, which now probably disqualified them as exempt employees and thus will owe them overtime very soon as well. This was an unprecedented $3-$10 per hour reduction in pay effectively.

He canceled health insurance for the entire company because he did not want to pay $200 per employee for the 15 or so employees who depended on the insurance. He even canceled the insurance for a key Vice President who was awaiting a liver transplant and was near death. How evil can you get?

It just goes from bad to worse over there at Gulf. There are even rumors which indicate the owner is involved in using drugs and therefore cannot remember from one day to the next what he says.

This is a den of inequity and injustice. Anyone who reads this should do everything they can to shut this dirty operation down completely so that it stops hurting its employees and clients through its dirty and deceitful practices.

Driving a $125,000 corvette is more important to Vanlandingham, than paying his employees what is owed to them... Get the picture? This guy is a total loser, abusing his employees, his family and anyone who becomes close to him. These are not rumors, but first hand experiences from those who work directly with him and are afraid of retribution to come forward to say anything.

Gulf Pacific is coming to a sad end due to mis-mangagment, lack of ethics, and indecent actions of the ownership. If you want to learn how not to run a business, then just watch how Gulf Pacific is run. What they advocate to their clients, they refuse to implement themselves. What they advocate is a hoax on their clients without any belief in what they are doing.

Dan Held attempted a take over of the business from the original owner 10 years ago in concert with Vanlandingham. They finally got their way. The old owner could not sustain the business any longer and Valandingham stepped in and forced the old owner out through his own foul play and manipulation, and playing on his Christian background with the old owner. He smiles to your face, praises the Lord on Sunday, abuses his wife and staff the rest of the week and goes on screwing his staff and customers. Atta Boy, Vanlandingham. Why doesn't he even have the balls to face the people he is cheating and square up morally and legally with them? Your guess is as good as mine... More reports to follow as things deteriorate at Gulf Pacific. Watch back here for more in the near future!
