it’s being reported, in local areas, RMS asking employees if they’d be willing to participate in Tik Tok videos basically saying how great it is working for Mondelez!!! ARE YOU KIDDING US ALL??

So now is mainly the ftow’s writing all the orders and the reps get the bonuses from doing nothing to hit their objectives?

There’s been rumors and whispers that some more layoffs or structural changes will happen in April. Has anyone heard anything about this?

We have been in mission 1 for 3 weeks now in the Chicago region and if this isn’t the writing on the wall for sales reps I don’t know what is! We are basically now grunts doing whatever is needed to fill the voids in our territories, some reps are... — read more 

My incompetent merchandiser just got an exceeds expectations, I got a met expectations, and I guarantee you I EXCEED on every level, and this merchandiser does 1/4 of the job. This company is at the tail end of a complete burn out. I'm in a... — read more 

Mondelez is a company willing to lose a dollar to save a penny. Spending tons on sales force but unwilling to budget to schedule enough hours for us to be productive in our jobs. So much lost potential because of the cost cutting.

Funny how one guy loses his job and the guy below him starts to show initiative. I guess the last 3 years of spending 4 days at home 8 hours a day 'writing schedules' is to be forgotten by the lower tier. Unreal.

District managers have been informed of who is losing their job. They have signed confidentiality agreements. Think about all the times your manager acted like everything was fine from now until March when you’re told you lost your job and they... — read more 

So I have to give up the almighty malibu today. Anyone down for some street racing or off roading?

Why did I just get invited to a teams call tomorrow?

So what’s the point of each team having extra rms’s? The team I’m on now has 3 rms’s. What do these guys do besides being on a power trip? I have yet to see one come out and help the merchandisers.

Who is getting laid off has NOTHING to do with productivity and EVERYTHING to do with achieving more for the bottom line, which occurs by cutting the fat. With all the retail changes over the years there is less and less selling and more and more... — read more 

For the people who were let go. Did they notify you with a HR call or through email. We are starting mission 1 in April and will find out In March who is getting get go. Was just curious how they are going about the process.

So my full time order writer merchandiser recently was a rep now he has this new role. I have 27 stores on my new territory and can barely keep up. My old full timer always sold in extra displays and always went above and beyond. This new ex sales... — read more 

I don't understand why this company today generally protects bad employees, while at the same time has little or no respect for hard working people. I've been working here for a long time and yes, there were such cases before but they were rare... — read more 

Its pretty obvious they're only keeping a few sales reps around to train the ftow's this year. Next year there won't be any sales reps.

Who else got their critical Illness insurance canceled on January first??

People not being held accountable for they're work. Walking off and going home, leaving deliveries. No one being reprimanded. Notes not being followed. Supervisors passing the buck and not confronting issues. People being promoted that aren't ready... — read more 

The atmosphere here is so depressing. I hope I can get something else very soon, because it's getting unbearable. Until then, I'm just doing the bare minimum. Actually, is anyone even trying to work hard here anymore?

How many stores do you have. Whats your objectives?

I called about 4 weeks ago haven't heard back. Has anyone ever used this

Did anybody else get their life insurance from All State cancelled?

I have 4 mini reps under me, 2 who probably can’t even tie there shoes and 1 that’s ok and 1 who doesn’t want to be a mini sales rep and I don’t blame them They are telling me to train the untrainable while laying off people and saying we are short... — read more 

After a few days of this mission one I cannot take it anymore. This is a living nightmare. I would rather drive a trash truck.

Good luck to those preparing y ok start in their new roles tomorrow

To anyone that received a severance and was let go, did the company require you to sign one of those papers/contract/disclosure forms, whatever you want to call it, where it states by agreeing to this severance you will be unable to sue or join any... — read more 

Considering the overall situation in the company and the number of complaints that can be read here, a relatively small number of people are actually leaving. Obviously, this place is lucky that many capable and talented people stay here despite... — read more 

I have read in many places here that people endure all kinds of pressure from management who try to drive them out so that the company can save on severance pay. Although I personally do not have such experience, I believe that it happens. What are... — read more 

I don't want to miss the severance, and also I didn't get any better offers that might make me change my mind. That's the only reason I'm still here. If I were the leadership, I would be concerned about how many employees are here only for the... — read more 

Merry Christmas from the land of the unemployed. May you find peace and maybe unemployment.

It’s funny to see all these FTOW not push back on the fact that they are essentially becoming sales reps with no car, no salary, no 401k, 1/2 the bonus, and 30-40% less pay I mean I’m glad I’m leaving with a little money and time on my side, but... — read more 

This is my last day. So long you sorry good for nothing sc-mbags!

Can we volunteer to take the severance or do they just let people go and give them the severance. I feel like this will be an absolute shitshow and probably best to get paid to leave.

I’m a sales rep and got my call from my Rdr and some hr guy 2 weeks ago about me losing my job and taking the severance package. My last day is Jan 20th up here in the Chicago market. They told me that I can apply for a ft order writer/merchandiser... — read more 

Well apparently all is good. Got my Christmas card.

You know they are not telling you all the truth. Get your resumes ready or stay for the buy out. Either way, make a exit strategy.

I completely understand those who try to do their best for the fear of losing their job. It is too stressful when you are left without a source of income in such uncertain times. However, going above and beyond will not make your position more... — read more
