Has anyone heard if any of the TN stores are being closed?

Note when BBBY announces layoffs. Always prior to Labor Day. Sure there must be a financial reason. Probably something to the effect of "we've had a really cr---y year again"

Is it company policy to allow one sale associate and one manager to close the store for the day? There will be two hours of the store being open with just two employees in the whole store?

As a SM this is the 4th time in the past 5 years of having to layoff or restructure a senior associate. This associate was the last FT non manager associate in the store and besides myself the only person that can do receiving to the level that needs... — read more 

Don’t act all shocked - the writings been on the wall for years

Does anyone know which stores are closing in Montana, Idaho, Utah, Oregon and Washington?

Does anyone know if pricing specialists positions are affected?

How many full timers were offered severance and could finish out the work week? If we don’t finish out the work week is that going to effect our severance?

Does anyone know what positions were eliminated?

Store 6 and 468 SMs were among those that were told yesterday they were closing!

Who is eligible for severance in closing stores?

We are nothing but a number to all of them. They don't see us as an asset that brings in profit but as the biggest expense they want to cut as much as they can. If they could, they would run this company with no employees, but sadly for them, that's... — read more 

If you look at the leadership now the ladies are running the ship. Hopefully they can turn it around and not run aground. The more we learn about the MT group the more we see how shady these guys were. GM had his house renovation compliments of BBB... — read more 

I'm failing to find a list of closing stores and that's unnerving. From some posts here I know some stores have already been notified, but is that true for all 150 stores or just some? I'm trying to figure out if we're still in danger of closing or... — read more 

Was anyone else told today that they were laid off, but their last day would be the end of the week? They didn’t do that the last 2 layoffs they had, wonder why they changed it up this time. And how can they expect someone to “give their all” knowing... — read more 

They couldn't even be human for a minute and sit me down face to face. They had a store manager from another store call me and then fax me over the paper. We have been nothing but numbers to them after we've put blood, sweat, tears into their... — read more 

Are Store Managers affected in any way financially? I mean personally to their income? Bonuses?

For the stores that were told they are closing, was a time frame given as to when they will close?

It’s a sad day.

Word on the street. Say it ain’t so.

Very nervous mine is on the list…

My store lost all 4 fulltimers left and the OPS manager, is this in all stores?

Dept mangers a few years back GONE in August! 2 years ago ASMs taken to 45 hours or up to 16 severance. Now the Doom of 2022!

Any severance for those being laid off.

Anyone in corporate who can tell us who is getting laid off? Is it distributed throughout, or are certain teams/roles being targeted?

Hope you guys don’t get Gordon Brothers to close your store had them with Macys they suck. After I got laid off I got a better job that paid more money at a good company so keep your heads up there’s plenty of opportunity out there.

Have store managers already been told if their store is one of the 150 closing?

Are asm going down to 40 and or being let go altogether? I've heard both.

Any Word on Store Level Layoffs?

is that number right? we have 32,000 employees, 20% reduction would be 6400 jobs? i feel like this report is really underselling that many people being laid off

HALLELUJAH! MELNICK is Gone. He did more damage to our stores and remodel program than Covid. If he is replaced, let’s hope the board selects someone with a business acumen including understanding P&L and R-O-I. CSO Responsibility is to retain... — read more

Anyone know when we would find out if we’re the sacrificial employees to get the boot?

as tomorrow approaches, the doom and gloom has started popping up, so i sincerely ask: are massive store closings and/or layoffs of full time (but not keyholder) an actual possibility? i’m not doubting that it is, but could tomorrow simply just be... — read more 

Lots of bad news for many stores tomorrow. Good luck to all employees.

Does anyone have the phone number for the call tomorrow…I know I saw it posted in one of these threads.

SM here have to be on a conference call tomorrow preferably at the store if off. Does not look good.
