I was sent an article called. Tale of corporate moral sin.
The stories of Corporate Greed just Keeps going... well known corporate brands, such as Qantas & BHP. Qantas' Collapse: Evidence of Corporate Greed
Alan Joyce's abrupt departure from Qantas may have surprised him, but for many, it was long overdue. After 15 years of making executive profits over customer satisfaction and employee relations, the once-revered airline has become a symbol of corporate Evil. Joyce's Troubled Tenure
Qantas itself hasn't been immune to wage scandals. In 2020, the airline repaid $7 million to 638 workers and was accused of misusing JobKeeper payments. Add to that the illegal sacking of its baggage handlers—a case the company lost multiple times, all the way to the High Court. Joyce's tenure was marred by conflict. He declared war on pilots and cabin crew early on, and in 2011, grounded the entire airline during industrial disputes, stranding nearly 100,000 passengers. This "victory" plunged Qantas into its first financial loss since going public.
Joyce's misguided ventures—including failed Jetstar expansions in Asia—led to billions in losses and mass layoffs. But every time the airline turned a profit, Joyce took full credit, while blaming external factors for downturns.
For now, the Qantas flame-out serves as a stark reminder of the widening gulf between corporate leaders and the people they are meant to serve.
Retirement on the North Coast.
My friends Elizabeth and George had retired to the South coast where they had many happy memories and became part of a amazing community. They are a hardworking couple who decided to invest in for their future income by putting their savings into an investment property.
Need for Proper Government Legislation to protect the Real Estate Rental Market in Australia.
After investigating these options and reading the clear legal language of these websites we approached one trusted corporate name L.Js' where upon we entered into an exclusive Rental Management Agreement. Everything seemed to go well until we were notified that our rental was to be vacated and we could attend to inspect the property.
It was a complete disaster and the person we were originally dealing with was not available, we were informed that we were now to deal with the new property manager Mr visit our website. His cavalier obtuse manner, attitudes and statements with regard to a property that my friends had cared for, about and spent many weeks and months preparing for the Rental market was now laid a wreck, carpets that and reeked of dog urine required removal and disposal. Sealing the floor boards relaying new carpet along with thousands of dollars of repair. I can still remember my friends face going white while recalling Me E Hood as a person who was completely out of his depth.
Despite the opinions and evidence of professional cleaners, painters, decorators and other Real Estate agents such as Ray White, he {simply denied the issues and claimed this is how the property was when originally rented to the tenants despite the actual evidence to the contrary|claimed the property did not smell and that the house was ready for rental. Ethan Hood had failed to carry out basic and proper Tenant evaluations, ingoing property reports, ongoing property reports and outgoing reports. He failed to hold the tenants to account for outstanding rent and damages, and by extension the franchisee and L.J Hookers. I got the sense that instead of helping to rectify the issues and entering into a proper conciliation process L.J Hookers engaged high end lawyers to intimidate, mislead and and protect the company reputation...
The Corporate Playbook.
The response by Corporate L.J Hooker to the many failures by their property manager E Hood was totally incomprehensible eliciting further underlying problems such as a lack of Corporate responsibility, morals and governance. Despite the clear Ruling by NCAT that showed without prejudice the damages suffered by Owners … this included but was not limited to;
1. Unpaid rent which required the owners to insist of holding the bond.
2. Damages to rental property which required holding the bond.
3. Release of Bond without proper investigation and evaluation.
4. Lack of ingoing report
5. Lack of ongoing report.
6. Lack of outgoing report.
7. Promise to Rectify damages etc. Broken.
8. Basic failure on all levels to uphold obligations of property management.
9. New Relationship with Ray White.
