WORLDCOMS FORMER EMPLOYEES WELCOME A NEW CAREER OPPORTUNITY FROM CUCUMBER COMMUNICATIONS
LAKEWOOD, NJ In an effort to assist the thousands of WorldCom employees who have lost their source of income, Cucumber Communications, a growing provider of long distance phone service, is giving these 17,000 men and women an opportunity to put their skills to use.
Kate Lee, a concerned former WorldCom employee who has established a forum for other former employees feels that the group will welcome an opportunity to put their skills to work. We have a highly skilled and highly motivated group of former WorldCom employees," says Ms. Lee. Any telecommunications company would be lucky to hire them, but Cucumber is the first to make such a concerted effort to hire from our ranks".
According to Lee, these former employees have received only a small portion of their severance pay and benefits as a result of WorldComs bankruptcy filing. Many have experienced financial difficulties as a result of losing their jobs and benefits.
Its only natural for us to consider the unfortunate predicament of the many laid off employees of a competitor", says Liz Schon, a business-to-business representative for Cucumber. After all, fully one hundred percent of this companys profits are used to send underprivileged children to excellent schools".
Rather than offering them 9-5 jobs with a long commute, Cucumber is giving former WorldCom employees a complete training program to make them full-fledged authorized agents of the company. This way, they can get a piece of the action," says Rachel Rappaport, Vice President of Operations. Some will become agents for life; others may join for a few months, reestablish their confidence, consider their options, and move on. Thats fine. Whether as an interim position or a full-fledged career, WorldCom employees now have an option.
