Re: Help me OOT! Help!
This is not a legal matter.
Your best bet is to work with your insders and within your own company to appeal for a reasonable exception to the policy. If that doesn't work, threaten to quit and work for company C if they won't let you go to company B. |

Re: Help me OOT! Help!
Company A's CEO is likely violating his fiduciary duties as a board member of company B (by setting policy that benefits his other company rather than company B).
Unfortunately, unless you're a shareholder in company B, you have no standing to challenge the matter. |

a company can choose not to hire you for any damn reason they want as long as it isn't discriminatory wrt race, color, religion, sex, national origin, sometimes sexual orientation or other reasons. what do you think the difference is between company B having this policy, and just not hiring people from company A cause they're usually dumb? not much really. [/ QUOTE ] Thanks for the clarification. |

Re: Help me OOT! Help!
I think the only people who may have a complaint is the stockholders of company B.

Resolution!
We have a local news station who does a "your stories" kind of thing everyday. I submitted a description of the situation with contact names at each company. Thanks to OOT I emphasized he was serving on their board and hurting them.
Magically this morning my source has said they got a new directive that everyone is fair game again. Maybe coincidence, but having a reporter call and ask questions when your a govt. contractor might have helped. Orange |

Re: Resolution!
Maybe the reason Company A is being forced to downsize is because the employees suck and the CEO doesn't want them at company B.

[/ QUOTE ] No. In fact Company A has some of the best RF engineers available. They also employ many high level electronic technicians experienced with DOD projects and X band products. Finding experienced people for these positions is not easy. Company A currently has problems getting people to fill the positions it is losing to company B. Company A is downsizing some fabrication of products that can built in China for less $. The rest of the downsizing I am talking/worried about is a possible strategic partnership with another producer who currently has better equipment (Company A has not invested in it's equipment in over 5 years). They will retain the DOD portion, test, and design locally. Orange |
