Need Advice: Unfair Treatment, Mass Firings, and Walkouts at The Cave

Hi everyone,

I’m writing on behalf of my friends who have been working at a thrift store called “The Cave.” They’ve been experiencing some really unfair treatment and we’re looking for advice on what to do next.

Here’s the situation:

• Upper management and owners have been bullying and berating employees regularly.
• The store has a habit of firing employees just before the one-year mark to avoid giving them a mandatory raise.
• Recently, there have been mass firings without any valid reason, leading to several walkouts by employees.

The work environment is toxic, with zero ethics, morals, or integrity. My friends are feeling really lost and unsure of their rights or what steps to take next. Has anyone experienced something similar or have any advice on how to handle this situation? Any tips on legal steps, reporting this behavior, or finding better employment would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!
