If any of HP's management need someone to tranlate that for them there are plenty of their staff in Ireland that they are slowly screwing over that would gladly come over to the US and show you.

Such a big company and yet they have displayed theyhave no morals or dignity when dealing with their staff outside the US.

They pull the jobs back to the US after getting several million dollars of an incentive then expect the Paddys to apply for a green card, move their lives 8000 miles and for that effort are prepared to pay them $6,000 dollars less than new staff that HP will have to train to do the job in the US.

Does anyone in HP know how to treat their staff correctly?

So wait, new starters get paid more than current workers who would have to be displaced for the pleasure? Sounds awful.

The current staff doing the job are better educated than the basic entry level in the US. But the current staff are being asked to relocate all at their own expense and work for $6000 less than the new starters in the US.

In a nutshell HP don't want the Irish workers and have done nothing but put obstacles in their path from day one. The law here insists that any company relocating a job must offer that job to the person in the job and that person should not be disadvantaged in any way.

Of course the big boys in HP think they can run rough shod over the law here. Hence the wankers label.

Explained that way, yeah that is awful. Alot of americans have lost jobs due to companies going overseas. It happens too much everywhere.

Basically big companies all over the world don't give a dam about the people that work for them.
