Heard a rumor that the company plans to eliminate hybrid work starting in 2027. Unsure if this is just for folks that are hybrid in Minnesota and DC where hybrid employees are expected already to come in 4 days a week. Anyone hear anything about this?

Could this be true?
I personally think they are setting up Comcast to be sold off either as a whole or in chunks. All the businesses that the "new" Comcast will be in (cable, internet, home security, mobile) are hypercompetitive and hard to survive in. Then NBC/Sky etc. can be the growth end.
Sounds a bit far-fetched to me.
Will 10/29 be the day?!
Starting a new post. Has anyone heard anything from a reputable source about layoffs tomorrow? It’s extremely difficult to work today. My anxiety is through the roof. Managers claim they don’t know anything.
Let me guess……
The turnaround is JUST around the corner? Lol
7 - 8% cut out of 52,000 mentioned in this article. CA is not happy with Q folks performance.

Potential sale of AFCO
Do we really think it will actually be for sale? I’m just curious on why a media statement was necessary if they are just thinking about selling?

Ethics Concerns
I've been hearing rumors that it's common practice for large DSD brands to incentivize Managers, RBLs, RVPs and higher with personal gifts & monetary gift cards to execute their vision in stores. This seems very unethical and wondering how it will be received when/if a public company (Kroger) takes over. It's concerning if these "leaders" are receiving tens of thousands of dollars in monetary gifts to sell-out the company. Wasn't someone just fired a few years ago for doing similar?
Has anyone heard/seen anything similar in your stores?
S&SPS Doomed
Rumour has it S&SPS if away to be sold off. who noticed some big dogs jumping ship already....

Next Round of Layoffs
November 12th is probably a good guess. Nothing confirmed but based on how finance does the books for 4th quarter, that is what I am thinking. I could go into more detail as to the why. But I posted that in the past and it makes for a long post.

I start my week by visiting here to see if there are more rumors of layoffs for the coming days. Every single Monday this is the first thing I do. If you told me ten years ago this would be our reality, I would have laughed in your face.

Cuts as high as 50%? Anyone else hearing this?
Initially I've heard it was 15-30% reduction and based off articles I've read. Now I'm seeing and hearing from people in office it's going to be up to 50% of the entire work force. Is this true?
