Anyone else give feedback after the town hall? I know I sure did!
Who is Ma*k, other than VP of fiction?
Which one of y’all thanked this guy when he laid you off, thanked him for all BBB is doing to turn around the company, and then, instead of putting your pencil down, you hit send on a really important email you had been writing, all because of how... — read more

Some stores will survive and thrive
I'm sorry for all the people in closing stores, but some locations are genuinely better earners and when they don't have to subsidize losses from other stores anymore, they will do great. It will take some time for the restructuring to be over, but... — read more

Who is the liquidation company
Is BBB self closing? Is it a liquidation company such as Sb360 and what about fixtures and racks?? Is inventory being transferred?? Seems odd to do it like this.
Severance and benefits
Is there a point in time where they legally have to give us information regarding benefit continuance information and wether or not we are receiving severance?
Bed Bath Canada to wind down- ie, liquidate.
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/bed-bath-beyond-wind-down-224422858.html Winding down is equal to liquidating in Commonwealth countries. There were many reports they would close the stores after they failed to get any freight after Dec 22.
This place is falling apart at the seams
Layoffs at corporate, new announcements on store closings every week, bankruptcy rumors, liquidation rumors... Honestly, if you don't realize that BBB is doomed that I don't know what to tell you. Personally, I give it until the end of this year... — read more

What are our chances of getting severance?
I'm asking about the stores that are still open but will most likely be closing soon. Is it already too late to hope we'll get even a reduced package?
Paid
Severance owed paid out today!!!! Very happy
How to save bed bath and beyond
Need to foster a brand of sustainability. Then market the brand. Focus on providing consumer a Portfolio of goods that are inclusive in nature, and in doing so embody a spirit of creative disruption.
Enjoy this to the fullest
The upside of BBB closing down is that you can just be rude back. What are they going to do, let you go one day sooner? It's finally time to say all the things to customers that you used to have to keep inside. Yes! I have been enjoying this so... — read more
updated full list
found this on Axios, looks like all the stores including the ones informed last week https://bedbathandbeyond.gcs-web.com/static-files/2fc46144-7e9a-4083-b728-3f6cab2d1545
If you're not sure if your store is closing
Check the BBB website, once a store is slated to be shut down they remove the curbside pickup option. It usually happens a week or more before it's officially announced.
