Facebook Bus Driver

Facebook employee’s bus driver’s are asking help from the Teamsters Union. The driver’s have been complaining about the lack of pay they obtain and the split shift schedule. The angry employees have written to  Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s chief executive in order to resolve this issue. However, Facebook do not believe it is their problem to resolve. The bus driver’s are part of the external company run by Jeff Leonoudakis. Mr. Leonoudakis is in charge of setting the wages and hours of his driver therefore it is up to them to solve this problem.
