Terrible HR policies leading to bad employee morale - Anonymous employee Eastman Employee Review

While other companies are giving out extra bonuses and raises in order to keep employees and reward them for their service in today's business-friendly tax environment, Eastman does all it can to short-charge employees of bonuses and raises. Eastman's healthcare plan is pathetic - we used to be able to save some money, but now it all goes for healthcare. Management at higher levels has lied to employees, and makes lip service to safety but we all know that production will win-out as the almighty dollar (for management, in terms of their UPP bonuses) trumps all. Most management decisions are based on the UPP - whatever puts more money into senior management's pockets. UPP is the bonus structure of senior management, while VPP is the bonus structure for working people...why the two bonuses? Should be fairly obvious.
