Can you share specific Cerberus Capital Management horror stories related to employee treatment?

Cerberus has been involved in some controversial real - estate deals. They bought properties at what seemed like bargain prices but then faced issues like legal battles over land use rights or environmental regulations. These problems dragged on for years, causing financial losses and a lot of negative publicity. In some cases, they had to abandon projects halfway, leaving behind unfinished developments and disappointed investors.

There was an incident where an employee had to work in a very cold environment because the store's heating system was broken. They asked management to fix it multiple times, but nothing was done for weeks. As a result, the employee got sick frequently and it affected their performance at work.

Sure. There was a person who received the wrong dosage of a medication for their colonic condition. It made their symptoms way worse. They had severe diarrhea and cramps that wouldn't go away.

Sure. In one building, the security guards hired by the property management were often asleep at their posts. Burglars took advantage of this and there were several break - ins. The property management didn't take any serious action until the tenants threatened to sue.

Sure. There was a case where a customer received a new Capital One credit card in the mail that they hadn't applied for. It turned out to be a mistake on the bank's part, but it took a long time to sort out and during that time, the customer was worried about potential identity theft. Another example is when a customer had their payment due date changed without proper notice, and they ended up being charged a late fee even though they thought they were paying on time.

Yes. Some employees have reported being afraid during late - night shifts because of insufficient security. There have been instances where the store was robbed while they were on duty, and they felt that there was not enough protection. Also, slippery floors due to spills not being cleaned up promptly pose a safety risk. Employees could easily slip and get injured, but management doesn't always seem to prioritize these issues.

Sure. There are customers who can be really rude. One employee said a customer threw a product at him just because the item he wanted was out of stock. The employee was just doing his job and had no control over the inventory situation, but still had to face such aggression.

Sure. There was a case where a graphic designer completed a logo design according to the client's initial brief. But then the client claimed it was not what they wanted and refused to pay. The designer had evidence of all the communication and drafts but still had a hard time getting Upwork to side with them in the dispute. It was a long and tiring process.

Sure. Civilians often face the horror of being caught in crossfire. For example, there are cases where families were having a normal day at home when suddenly their houses were targeted. Women and children had no time to escape and got injured or even killed.

Sure. There were reports of sexual harassment at the event. Some women felt unsafe due to the rowdy and uncontrolled behavior of some of the male attendees. It was a very unpleasant situation for them.
