Mike please you can sack them again sef just to be sure ..

You must be a blatant fool and a blinking idiot for this comment. People were sacked but all you had to do is say that cannot be true. Have you found out or investigated?

I really sympathise with those who lost their jobs. However, my sister has a different story to tell as a staff of Globacom who has been in the employ of the company for about 12 years. She just got redeployed to join her family in Ibadan from Lagos where she has been for some time. She tells me that Glo is an equal opportunity entity that has never victimised her on account of her marriage or her being the mother of four children who constantly need motherly attention. Could it then be true that performance\or lack of it is the basis of the recent downsizing in Glo? If it is, i doubt if any profit-oriented company would want to retain any staff that they consider lacking in the prescribed ingredients required to achieve the company's set goals towards further growth. Again, i pray God grants open doors to those who were affected.

anything above 10k can be saved and invested if ua not lazy
not to talk of 6figure salaries

Jakumo:
Beautiful single women attract customers to ALL businesses that are smart enough to recognize this fundamental truth about human nature. It is no accident therefore that young, sexy, single women are posed beside new cars put on display for sale, or that pretty girls are preferentially hired as customer-service representatives, be that for telephone conversations, or direct contact with clients.

It is a well-known fact that Nigerian women, generally speaking, quit all forms of exercise the instant they get married and start bearing children, with the result that once-sexy wenches quickly transform into the fat matronly CASH-MADAMS, whose bruising egos, body mass and harsh attitude all balloon in direct proportion to their age, and seniority in any given organization.

Whether it is deemed "fair" of not, corporations do routinely put staff out to pasture as they age, and, since women GENERALLY show their age much quicker than do men in most African cultures, it stands to reason that women who are obviously married and with kids WILL be shown the door in proportionately greater numbers than is the case with their male counterparts.

Simply put, your average punter is far more likely to spend generously, or sign on the dotted line, if he is persuaded to do so by an alluring 22-year old woman, than would be the case if a buxom and commanding Iya Monday was the one hired to win over that vital contract or purchase.

Konji is a bastard, as the saying goes.

that contradicts everything you have said about nigerian men and your frequently derided fat women tho.

Do you want buhari's cattle to eat her crop or Fulani herdsmen to butcher her?

I think we should...

This report is absolute falsehood. I am married, and also a female staff of Globacom, presently in Gloworld Lagos. I have kids too. Truly some staff were recently laid off but it could not have been on the basis of their marital status. Instead of getting a sack, I was promoted and given more responsibilities.

My opinion here differs from the writer here. I work with Globacom and I'm married with a Child. I am still in employment and placed in a more senior role. We all knew of the recent corporate restructuring exercise although it took us all by surprise. The loss of employment at this time is very painful and I feel the pain and frustration of my colleagues whose employment have been terminated. I'm aware of so many male and single female colleagues whose employment were also terminated as a result of this restructuring exercise. Though I'm not privy to the criteria that informed the terminations and new staff placements, I believe there was a structure to it which was definitely not targeted at married women. Rather, my informed guess would be 'efficiency'. Could the writer be more fact based?

Good to hear from insiders before jumping into conclusion...with your opinion one can deduced the reason for their sack...dereliction of duty,lack of productivity and non compliance ...The bull won't have non of that around him

would you keep staff that were running your business down

franchasng:
Most women become stubborn, less ambitious, very rude, careless and arrogant once they get married.

They come to work late and sometimes close work at will just because they are married and if u dare correct them, they call their husband.

Some use almost 6 months for various leave and off and give their employer just 6 months, which capitalist will condone that except government work

If I had my way, no married woman will work in higher institution admins and in fact in any civil service position that involves serving masses cos they are the worst set of staff to deal with.

Go to Nigerian higher institutions and civil service orgs and govt parastatals and watch how most married women ignore people and gossip.

They can abandon you while playing with their kids or gossipping with their colleagues or dealing their personal businesses....some even sell snacks, etc, abandoning their jobs because they know at the end of the month, they get salary alert, so who is customer to complain

They make themselves demigods in their workplaces.

This is painfully true. Women staff can be difficult to relate with sometimes. Too much attitude.

MIKOLOWISKA:

Ofcourse not,
But why u would u think they were running the biz down, especially if the biz is doing well??

Are you in Gloworld department? Many that were affected were hardworking staff who met their target.

They should be compensated atleast. Many had worked for twelve to fifteen years.

How Essential Budget Recruitment Hotel Swindles Job Seekers.
With the high rate of unemployment in the country,some Nigerian employers are taking the advantage to swindle Job seekers and sack them after collecting their money.We always criticise Lebanese and Indian employers of maltreating Nigerians working for them,but fail to talk about our own race who are worse.
This recruitment agency below that are set up with different names are own by one person.The names are,
Essential budget hotel recruitment.
Ashosh budget hotel.
Transit budget hotel.
Their headquarter is before 7&8 bustop,beside gtb, airport road,ajao estate,lagos.The owner who i learned also have hotels,excel oriental,transit hotel and ashosh set up a recruitment outfit to be collecting#5000 from unemployed youths.His HR department will tell unsuspecting job applicants to pay #5k and to undergo 2 weeks probation after which he/she will be confirmed and employ.Not only that,they will tell them that #3000,out of the #5000 paid,will be refunded back to the applicants after they have completed their 2 weeks training.That money will cover their transportation cost.After they have exploited applicants for 2 weeks they will not refund back the #3k as promised.Instead,they will be sack and replace with another group of potential victims.This dubious attitude goes on and on.
Rather,they will tell them that the #3k refund has been cancel without notifying the applicants before he/she was engaged.I have read about the chairman's profile here on Nl, here,https://www.nairaland.com/2414044/transit-budget-hotels-criminally-known,but I ignored it.
I want to use this medium to advise job seekers to avoid that hotel.

O ga O.

While I sympathize with my colleagues affected by the sack, it is not true that women were sacked because they are married.  People were sacked due to non-performance.  From the appraisal, some staff were promoted, others were moved across level. And by the grace of God, I was promoted from Stock Controller to Manager, and I am married and working in Gloworld for over 10 years.  It is important we say the truth. Ij, PH.

Anyways, it's his firm, they have their reasons. Life continues

If this story is true, then it means chief Mike Adenuga must be a confused man.
