Good thing we're run by competent, smart people /s

A Massachusetts couple settled a lawsuit after eBay employees carried out a cyberstalking and harassment campaign triggered by an online newsletter critical of the e-commerce company. The settlement, disclosed in a federal court order filed Wednesday, Feb. 25, halts a trial set to begin next week over multimillion-dollar claims filed by David and Ina Steiner against eBay and three former executives. The terms of the settlement were not shared. The company declined to comment beyond the order but previously said in court papers that it was committed to compensating the Steiners "fairly and appropriately for the appalling conduct they endured." https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2026/02/27/ebay-lawsuit-settlement-cyberstalking/88883622007/

SM time off guidance!

"Discretionary Time Off Guidance" by SM confirms the 200 hour cap on "time off" aka combined sick and vacation time. Unfortunately, this cap is in direct violation of the unlimited vacation and sick time policies of L3H and the US federal employment laws regarding compensation for time off. Any attorneys reading this who are interested in a class action lawsuit against L3H for current and former employees?

Let's celebrate the lawsuit in the spirit of EWeek - Transform Your Future


Failure to comply with WARN Act?

Was the Oct-2025 RIF in compliance with the WARN Act? At least one law firm is investigating and below is the introductory paragraph from their notice. I've also recently heard more RIFs have take place this week and do not know the scale of the action. For any current and former Hitachi Vantara workers weigh your options.

"On October 31, 2025, Hitachi Vantara notified the California Employment Development Department of its decision to conduct a mass layoff at its facility in Santa Clara, California. The federal law, known as the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act, requires covered employers to provide 60 days’ prior written notice to employees, their representatives, and certain government parties in the event of a mass layoff or plant closing. We are investigating whether Hitachi Vantara failed to provide at least 60 days’ notice before laying off 129 employees and, therefore, violated the WARN Act."

"Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, announces it has filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of purchasers of securities of Kyndryl Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: KD) between August 7, 2024 and February 9, 2026, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"). A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than April 13, 2026 in the securities class action first filed by the Firm.

When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages."


Never Forget => IBM's dinobabies settled age discrimination lawsuit

https://www.techmonitor.ai/leadership/workforce/ibm-dinobabies-age-discrimination-case?cf-view

The documents showed communications between two executives, in which one “applauds the use of the disparaging term ‘dinobabies’” to describe the older IBM employees as part of a “plan to oust them from IBM’s workforce”. According to the court documents, “he describes his plan to ‘accelerate change by inviting the dinobabies (new species) to leave’ and make them an ‘extinct species‘”.

Both executives, whose names and positions were redacted in the filing, have since left IBM. Other documents referred to the company’s “dated maternal workforce” and called for IBM to “shift headcount mix towards greater percent of early professional hires.”

They settled this in 2022 and yet we are seeing IBM's desire to reduce staff and pay based on age, s-x, race, skin color get WORSE after a settled lawsuit on this?! Hire with little to know experience but tell the world experienced people are no longer needed because we have AI now and everybody knows 20 somethings know AI better than the dinobabies who built their skills over decades of dedication to IBM?


Smithfield Foods Layoffs Prompt Legal Inquiry

Strauss Borrelli PLLC is investigating Smithfield Foods regarding a potential mass layoff. The firm is looking into the company's facility in Springfield, Massachusetts. Smithfield Foods notified the state of 190 employee layoffs on February 6, 2026. The investigation focuses on whether the company violated the federal WARN Act. This act generally requires employers to provide 60 days' notice before mass layoffs.

Remember that posting awhile back about a lawsuit

Five former Dell Technologies employees have filed a lawsuit against the company, alleging that poor oversight of its 401(k) retirement plan led to massive losses for workers. The complaint, filed on Jan. 28 in federal court in Austin, Texas, claims Dell failed to properly manage the plan and cost participants more than $318 million.

According to the proposed class action, Dell violated the Employee Retirement Income Security Act by continuing to offer investment funds that consistently underperformed, even as stronger and less expensive alternatives were available. The plaintiffs argue that this prolonged inaction put employees’ retirement savings at risk and eroded long term returns.


Chicken gate

There is a class action lawsuit against Costco for falsely advertising their $5 rotisserie chicken is no preservatives. I want to know what's in the Ford $6 chicken. Kitchen whistle blowers speak up.

Any repercussions for Festog and Greed

Festog and Greed are primarily to blame for the destruction of the company, that’s not in dispute. Have there been any consequences to them? They both walked away with generational wealth, but have either been held to account? Major lawsuits? Financial claims against them? These two vicious, evil sc-mbags need to pay, but it looks like they’re gonna walk scott free. What can be done?


SF Reputation and RICO

When SF settled the RICO case for 250 Million it spoke volumes about the company reputation. To say it was settled as a business decision which IMO an admission of liability. This damaged the company and it continues to spiral downward by cutting benefits, laying workers off, and continuing to slash workers who believe and work hard to fulfill the mission and vision of the company. The company advertising deals with everything but the product itself. The customer is wise to its diversion tactics. On a local level, the company's reputation has tanked even within law enforcement. What was once the leader in all respects of ethics and business has literally been flushed down the toilet for money.


How is leadership still in charge after this ?

Fidelity National Information Services agreed last week to pay $210 million to settle a lawsuit brought against it by investors over its $35 billion-dollar purchase of the merchant services firm Worldpay, according to a spokesperson for plaintiffs’ lawyers at the firm Labaton Keller Sucharow.
Under terms of the Dec. 17 legal agreement, the recovery is expected to be about 42 cents per “damaged share,” but that amount will be shaved to 32 cents on average, after taking into consideration up to $47.5 million in fees and expenses, plus interest, for the plaintiffs’ lawyers, according to a legal document provided by the spokesperson. The agreement is contingent on court approval.


Impending lawsuits

This is going to be amazing to watch unfold. What you all need to keep in mind is that if your state is at will, trash like bny can terminate without reason. However what they legally cannot do is mark you below or terminate for performance if you were on track at mid year and had no issues leading up to that. I know several with lawyers on standby the minute they say terminated due to poor performance . They can also be sued for other reasons you need proof of like discriminatory actions so you have to document everything for proof
