I am African-American, and I was racially discriminated against during the duration of my employment.
My co-workers accused me of being insubordinate, refusing to work independently, and poor work performance. The person who was training me refused to listen to me and accused me of lying about my background. She didn’t believe I had the correct background to work there, and I firmly believe her perceptions and treatment were racially motivated. Despite the fact that I followed the work orders that she gave me and other work orders from the ticket system correctly, I was still accused of poor work performance and told to leave the company. I firmly believe this adverse action was racially motivated, and I was never written up for any accusations of poor work performance.
If I had known my rights at the time of my employment, I would have reported it to the company and taken action against the company for racially discriminating against me. While the statute of limitations has expired on any potential actions I can take, I believe my treatment by my co-workers in my department was racially discriminatory and firmly attest to such.
I am a very good worker with excellent credentials who followed the instructions, rules and policies of the company in the manner I was instructed to. I detest the treatment I received, and I urge any African-Americans applying here to steer away from this company's I.T. positions.
I can't attest to any other positions in other departments, so feel free to apply to those. I think if I worked in a different department, I would've had a better experience there.
