Graphic flyers aplenty were left in every crevice of the premises to remind everyone of Nalco’s shameful link to puppy killers. When Nalco staff failed to answer our knocks, we outed their base practices to their neighbors who were all rightfully horrified by the blood on Nalco’s hands. In opposition to their disgraceful complicity in the torture of 500 animals each day, we approached the door of Nalco’s Miami suite hoping to instill in them a reverence for the individuals tortured under their name. Nalco is a chemical company that has recently been exposed for contracting experiments with silicon dioxide on animals at HLS. Next, we decided to pay a well-deserved visit to Nalco, a longstanding HLS customer. For the many employees funneling in and out of work, there was no avoiding the verbal reminders and haunting images of animals killed inside HLS.īeckman Coulter, we won’t stop holding you accountable for the senseless murders you help commit until you drop HLS for good. No matter-the resonating sound of our just message could be heard all throughout the complex. They must have spent a fortune on security, presumably to deter us from talking with employees on the property. Also present was Mike Deluca, whom the company flew in to film us speaking out against their shameful dealings with animal abusers.
Much like last time, we were greeted by a hodgepodge of the company’s security guards and creepy, white-van-driving personnel. Yesterday, a dozen activists united at the main entrance of Beckman Coulter’s office complex in Miami. We had no choice but to return with megaphones blaring and shame the company again for its bloody ways. The animals so ruthlessly violated inside HLS continue to suffer and die, and all the while Beckman Coulter remains responsible for their deaths. I love my company, but I am seriously considering seeking another opportunity to grow in a better work environment.Last month, we made it clear to Beckman Coulter that as long as they keep doing business with the puppy killers at Huntingdon Life Sciences (HLS), they haven’t heard the last of us. We have lost our way as a company, and need to get back on track ASAP. Simply being engineers and taking care of our customers needs to be brought back to the forefront of our business, not worrying about how fast I am driving to get to my customer, or if I've arrived before 9 AM, or if I've communicated with my customer before the 30 minutes after receiving a dispatch. And the most annoying thing of all is the constant micro-managing of Metrics and KPI's. I have not had a one-on-one meeting with my direct manager for almost 4 months. Management is great, but most of the time it is difficult working with them because they are way overtasked.
