Former Executive Assistant - Hudson Valley, NY
It wasn't just the Executive Assistants in Armonk that experienced the total lack of respect for the jobs we did, it was Administrative Office Managers edict to E/As all throughout the US. We were told to do what was necessary to get the job done in 40 hours, end of discussion. We needed to accomplish all our tasks within that period and it took longer, they would not approve our timecards for any hours in excess of the 40 hours. So basically, if you wanted to receive the 1 or 2 ratings on your performance review that they would dangle in front of you, you needed to be in the office as long as necessary whether you were compensated or not.
