Union Plus Reviews

Where to begin with this trash can fire of an organization? UP exists for one purpose: to fund the AFL-CIO by selling union members "financial services products" (ie debt) like credit cards and mortgages. The managers come in three varieties: inept, toxic or inept and toxic. Micromanagement is the order of the day -- staff are often treated without any respect, management is abusive or hostile, new staff are hazed and run through the proverbial ringer because once they get through their probationary period, they're under the union contract and can't be fired. Hours are closely monitored and management nickels and dimes on leave. Although this is a union organization, management greatly resents the union. People have been hired for senior roles from within the labor movement, but don't have any experience working in affinity marketing, making problems worse. Morale is terrible.

Toxic work environment. Micromangey managers. Improvements and team-building are just for show.
