McClatchy cutting jobs http://blogs.reuters.com/mediafile/2009/03/09/sound-familiar-mcclatchy-cutting-jobs/ Where media and technology meet Thu, 20 Jun 2013 01:23:25 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.2 By: Marilyn http://blogs.reuters.com/mediafile/2009/03/09/sound-familiar-mcclatchy-cutting-jobs/comment-page-1/#comment-358562 Marilyn Tue, 05 May 2009 05:48:10 +0000 http://blogs.reuters.com/mediafile/?p=15168#comment-358562 The Executives from McClatchy don't know what they are doing. When the McClatchy family ceased running the company, the "new executives" have cut back all of the incentives that "Ms. Eleanor McClatchy" had set up for her employees. She treated her employees as if they were family, they were paid the best in the business, the employees were happy working for this company. Not any more. The "New Executives" have terminated almost all of the veteran employees, replacing them with employees who have no experience and will work for minumum wage. The employees who are still there are there just to complete their time and to get their retirement. Even that is uncertain, now that the McClatchy company has frozen their Pension Plan. Almost everything in the future is uncertain as far as veteran employees are concerned, the only thing that is certain is that the "New Executives" will continue to get their bonuses regardless of what the economy is going through, of how much debt the company has. If it were not for the CEO, Gary Pruitt's biggest mistake, buying the KNIGHT RIDDER PACKAGE, THE COMPANY would still be in good standing and making alot of money. Because Pruitt is so greedy and so hungry for attention he wants for the public to think that he knows what he is doing, NOT TRUE, he was there when the company was doing good, and he just happened to be there, it has nothing to do with him. Most McClatchy employees would love it if he were fired today, and never heard from again. I know for a fact, that I would. He should be fired for making the worst Business Decision in all of McClatchy's history, buying the KNIGHT RIDDER was the biggest mistake of the entire McClatchy History. Now, there is a big probability that the company will go under sooner than the public knows. The Executives from McClatchy don’t know what they are doing.
