Please consider writing a report and posting with this government agency, if you have not already done it:

Dan, if you don't mind, can you let us know where this blog is? I know we can't paste links, but maybe direct us as to how to get there? I'd be really curious to see this blog.

And by the way, it sucks that you got fired, but I am sure by now you realize that it was a blessing in disguise. Best of luck to you in future endeavors.

This story is shocking but only one of the hundreds that should all be brought to light. Dan Gilbert should be a shame, even if he's not the one doing this stuff - he still GUILTY because he's looking the other way while his punk a** clowns run the zoo and BILL EMERSON is the ring leader. DAN you owe more then the 462 people overtime, you have maybe HUNDREDS of PEOPLE WHO WERE WRONGFULY FIRED. That's also the reason why QL is not laying off sales staff, they wrongly like to fire them. 100% COVER UP. I hope those RATS go down.

You wrote: "...quicken is firing people for minor reasons so they can lower the work force without having to say they "laid people off", so they can keep a positive image. "

I don't think this at all. It's all about dollars and cents. When they lay someone off, that laid off person can collect unemployment insurance benefits. If the same person is fired for cause (performance issues) then that same person cannot collect unemployment benefits.

This is not new in the business world - rather than pay their contribution to unemployment when they lay someone off, it's cheaper for them if they can fire that person instead.

It's the same if someone quits - no unemployment - so that might explain all the unusual mandatory overtime - ya don't like it, quit (please quit!)

I have no doubt that you account is accurate.

Quicken would be VERY sensitive about ANY employee's public comments that could be, might be, should be remotely deemed "sensitive" in today's sub-prime mortgage meltdown. And your blog DOES represent public comments.

Many teenagers get into trouble at their schools, and even into legal trouble with the police, by "documenting" underage drinking on their blogs. But I digress.

The USA sub-prime mortgage meltdown has caused a world-wide financial crisis! Central banks in the USA, Europe, and Japan, are all releasing a ton of money to prevent a world-wide financial lockup! This is a SERIOUS SITUATION, man! Do you want to be blamed for it?

You have "seemingly admitted" (my inference) to "improper loan document activities", while Quicken Management may have been clever enough to have built a wall of "plausible deniability" to protect itself, meaning that if the Feds come snooping around, YOU and your coworkers could be the people getting hung. Not Quicken Management.

I suggest you lie low on this one and watch your back very carefully... or even go see an employment lawyer who has dealt with such "sensitive" matters. Otherwise YOU could have appointed yourself one of the "fall guys".
