Nelson Peltz House of Horrors

Billionaire Nelson Peltz remains one of the most famous takeover artists in America: In recent years, the corporate raider (or "activist investor," as he prefers to be known) has battled for control of Wendy's, Heinz, and the candymaker Cadbury Schweppes. His hard-charging approach and tendency to ruffle feathers isn't just restricted to his professional life. Life inside Peltz's vast estate in Bedford is just as vicious, we hear, and the staff at the estate is subjected to such a dizzying amount of abuse, the Peltzes may be the worst family in America to work for.

The unfortunate thing is that this employer has been acting this way for years, according to my candidate contacts. Candidates should definitely do their homework and figure out what the staff history has been for the employers who they may be interviewing with. It's really all about mutual respect.

Unfortunately, these category of employers offer high pay to fill the roles and persons who need work don't really think about the working conditions. Sadly for the worker, these experiences can be scarring, and overall perhaps not worth the short term pay check- but maybe not.

As a result, many are indispensable and therefore able to command both substantial wages and comfortable on-site accommodation. "
