How many?
How many of us are only staying with Mondelez because we are hoping to be laid off with severance? Just wondering if the number is as high as I think it is...
Mondelez
Why would we trust this company. Mondelez lies about timelines constantly. Why would Kroger and Wal Mart go CAO ? Why are sales reps. Working more loads and not selling anything. Getting rid of DSD cannot happen overnight. It takes years for this to... — read more

Mondelez Layoffs 2019
Thoughts? Any Mondelez Layoffs in 2019?
Our jobs are not what they used to be
It is really sad that we have to always be on edge about our jobs. Our jobs are not what they used to be. We cannot plan our lives. We cannot buy anything that is expensive like a new house or new family car. Every time there is a Town Hall meeting... — read more
Town Halls @ Mondelez
How do you like them? For me, it's a major waste of time, resources and money.
Is Mondelez going warehouse delivery?
My Walmart manager showed me that he can order all our products now. It's in their ordering system. Same as Keebler items are now. He scanned other vendors and their items aren't in his system at all to order. Seems like something is going to happen... — read more
HOW MUCH PHYSICAL WORK DO SALES REPS DO
I was told that sales reps only work as exerting twenty (20) to fifty (50) pounds of force accasionally, or ten (10) to twenty-five (25) pounds of force frequently, or an amount greater than negligible and up to ten pounds constantly. (Constantly :... — read more
The Chipita buy is looking more and more certain

Dirk's new strategic review
Wanted to share this from another thread. Makes total sense. Thanks for sharing Nowhere have you read that they are investing in dsd, it ain’t happening! Consolidating ain’t investing, its cost cutting! Only reason they say they aren’t focusing on... — read more
September?
I thought that DSD was supposed to be dead by September? Did you guys mean September 2030?
Mondelez cuts next week?
I've heard we might be having significant cuts next week. Any more info on it from somebody here?

Different Post, Same Comments
I swear every single thread has the same 4-5 people on it. Extremely annoying. To the game over, titanic, and hit send people, why are you still with this company? You've been saying this for over a year and yet here you are day after day... — read more
Automation
I think it s---s that all those people lost there jobs but it wasn't all about outsourcing some of those lines where not updated since the 70-80s automation would have killed 70-90% of there jobs anyway.
Cuts
Have other areas been having ridiculous amounts of cuts on deliveries the past few weeks, or is this just exclusive to us down south? Core items like Nillas, Chewy Chips Ahoys (regular and family size), and Double Stuf Oreos (also all sizes), not to... — read more

Tates to go DSD this fall
3rd party tates rep said we are picking it up sometime in the late 3rd early 4th 1/4. I'm just passing along what I was told can't certainly disagree with the guy telling me but I bet you all can.
What is DSD?
I don't work for Mondelez, my dad does so I come here occasionally to see if there are any news on layoffs (he's the kind of man who wouldn't tell me if he was dying to spare me worry, so I have to check somehow to know if he needs any help.) Every... — read more
Nabisco may not want to leave DSD, but...
Nabisco may not want to leave DSD but Kroger,Walmart and other chains aren't renewing their contracts. Nabisco is being forced into warehouse. It's been in the works since 2013 when we closed branches and warehouses. 2020 is when the contracts run... — read more
"Major" reset in Kroger
Starting next week. All national brands are losing space for their private label brand. How much longer before DSD is done?
Does this mean no layoffs?
Just wondering, considering that we are doing better and shares are moving up accordingly, is there a chance any planned layoffs will be put on hold?
?
When do we get Tates?
Q2 earnings report
https://ir.mondelezinternational.com/events?field_nir_event_start_date_value_3=2018&mobile=1 Sounds very promising for DSD. Dirk said that we're moving in the right direction and he values DSD. Where'sh-- send and titanic guy at?!?!?!?
Dear Nabisco Cheerleader
I’m curious why you are so oblivious to the fact that your coworkers are posting on this site and not “elves”. Do you really believe that people fired a a year ago actually care whether or not if we are in DSD or not. From most Keebler reps that I... — read more
