    It’s not every company, but that is what mine did. We’re “management” but we don’t manage anyone.

      Given how “business-friendly” the US has become, I imagine there are all sorts of loopholes that only work in favor of the corporation.

        There doesn’t need to be loopholes anymore. The SC will just blatantly rule in favor of companies.

        In case anyone has missed it, they’re done with loopholes, done with being sly and coy. They are saying the quiet parts, they are marching proudly, they are confident and unafraid. We need to make them afraid again.

        The right wing and its corporate masters are done hiding in shadow. Loopholes and subterfuge are for chumps when you can just change the rules without consequence.

      Classifying employees as management without having actual management duties is a violation of federal labor law. You might be owed back wages/overtime. Could be worth looking into. A class action lawsuit against a previous employer I had led to hundreds of employees getting checks for thousands of dollars, even after lawyers took their fee.

      Some technical jobs can be legally classified exempt from overtime. That is different than being classified as management.

        They just give us the PM title and call it a day. No court is going to take that seriously and allow a massive lawsuit.
