I was working for TBC for a few months. I had recieved one check that was at the offered rate offered to me on date of hire. The next paycheck I didnt receive they sent out emails the day before stating that they were not able to compensate us on the paydate. Then GA DOL was and is investingating them and then all while they are hiring people every week and having these people leave good jobs and knowing not paying them and knowing not able to pay so they say. They are paying their employees minimum wage by the state and is not honoring their offer letter to their employees.

After that pay date they stated they would pay us plus our back wages from the previous paychecks due to them giving minimum wage and then we didnt even get that. They then say on April 8th they will be giving us our pay in full. That day comes we receive minium wage again for 4 weeks then another email follows stating that we will start on monthly pay dates and the next pay date is May 13 2011.

Because they only pay minimum wage the staff couldnt afford to make it to work or pay child care services and were terminated. By that time they are never going to send out my paycheck. Come to find out they owe alot of past employees by doing them the same and this has been going on for years now. Its a PONZEY scheme. (just like Bernard Madoff). Then on top of the employees losing their homes, cars and households the Winfreys never respoind to emials, phonecalls, etc when wondering where your paycheck is. "Now who is really the cowards"? as per Dr. Winfrey stated in the meeting.

#1 UPDATE EX-employee responds

Let take the Bridges Center down

AUTHOR: Michael Chapple - (USA)

I received a call from the Department of Wage and Hour division this

morning and they are saying that The Bridges Center- Elana Winfrey is now in

collections with the Department of Labor. They scheduled to pay a large amount of people and failed to hold on to their signed agreement so the Department of Labor
has now put their account into collection .. The contact is Elisa Black
case manager case number 1580430 and her contact number is 678-237-0493
or you can reach Regina at 678-237-0545. Please contact Elisa to verify
that you are on the case with the Department of Labor Wage and Hour division. It has been a hard road
but justice will be made. I wish that we had more help with pursuing
The Bridges Center and this may be a short ride than it should be but
giving up is not in my dictionary!!!
