I have worked for a healthcare staffing company for the last almost three years. I was a top performer recruiter and moved my way into being a manager overseeing a team of recruiters, schedulers, and operation specialists. My district was the top performing with the most hours billed to clients out of all of the districts.
I joined this company when they were a start up and have worked so many unpaid overtime hours, help creating policies for day to day business, and a large part of the only business the company has left. I brought my husband on board with this company during a time when I still felt good feelings about the company and our work.
I’m just over 3 months pregnant and just found out today that they eliminated my position. They will be keeping other lower performers in the company, but have decided to lay myself and my husband off.
I am in the darkest place. I gave so much to that company only to have them rob our entire household of its livelihood. How do I even find work when I am expecting? I feel like a burden of two mouths to feed…
