IF YOU REALLY WANT TO SEE HOW NOT TO RUN A BUSINESS, WORK HERE - Anonymous employee Leedo Employee Review

Screwy company all the way from the time you accept their letter offering you a job, until you leave (usually not of your will). 1. They have a 401k plan - you can put in part of your pre-tax salary but unlike other large companies, they do not match your contribution at all. You're better off putting money in a saving account at the bank. 2. They have Salary and per/hour workers. Very few are salaried. 3. They'll work you to death. This sounds good as you've read "2." above, but they won't/don't pay your over-time @ 1.5/hr. I don't know how they get away from doing this - but they do. It works like this: You're worker-bee getting paid $15/hour. Typical OT would dictate if you were to work 10 hours OT you would receive 1.5 x $15 for each OT hour ($22.50). At Leedo this would be not true. The more OT you work, the lower your regular dollar/hour wage goes down. So the more you work, the less benefit to working OT you'll see. For example, 40hr/week @ $15/hr. = $600/week. Using their calculations, if you worked 10 hours of OT, your paycheck would show your standard wage to now be $12/hr. They would then multiply $12 x 1.5 to show that your 10 hours of OT now only gets you $18/hr. Keeping in mind if you didn't work any OT your pay was $15, it's amazing how after 10 hours of OT your base pay has lost $3/hr. Of course, the more OT you work the worse it gets: Let's say it's a busy week and you work 20 hours of OT. Your base pay has now shrunk from $15/hr. to $10/hr. - like I wrote, I don't know how they can do this. Not necessarily a "CON", but they pay you weekly, rather than bi-weekly like just about every other big company does. Being employed their for just over a year I saw them get rid of over 74 employees - not something you like to see, working a week and finding 20 people gone within that 5 day period.
