You don't fire people when they are far from home and cancel the corporate credit card leaving the employee scrambling to get home. I get it that companies fire employees but you don't leave them stranded...unless they were stealing or something.

Wholeheartedly agree.

I would not knowingly support a business that treated its employees in such a manor.

 

[Smoqman]

Agreed

Beyond disappointing and unacceptable for any company in any market segment.

I plan on letting my local retailers know about Villiger's ethics. I suggest you do as well.

I am running against the grain. I actually plan to do business with them now because of this.

I decided not to give them my business when I smoked one of their sticks that tasted like garbage .

If you guys are that shocked you might want to take a look at your wardrobe or the car you drive. Think about how employees are treated in Vietnam.

Both good points.

Capitalism at it's ugliest. As much as we'd like to believe few are the companies out there whose benevolence doesn't stem from tax benefit. Since most big companies CEO's and psychopaths and Boards of Directors are of the same ilk, it comes as no surprise.

As customers we want Walmart and Costco to keep prices low and the only way that happens is by squeezing labor and suppliers who squeeze their suppliers and so forth and so on.

So behavior like this will persist until we stop supporting these firms with our hard earned money.

Sorry for the rant.

128th Anniversary? Never even heard of them. Strong poor first impression.

Are we really that concerned about business ethics when rollers in 3rd world countries can't even afford to buy the cigars they roll?

Nobody I know of smokes a Villiger except as an experiment.

Glad I was never interested in this brand. Now I'm really not interested in them.
