Hiring freeze. Salary freeze - no bonus. Start cutting headcount. This may help survive the company. Who is in charge? Oh, start with that fella

Quick search of the Nordstrom Careers site – Technology jobs in Seattle

88 jobs listed
16 posted this week
~50 are a month old or more – the site lists them as "30+ Days Ago"

Trunk Club is distributing decreases in pay as we speak. They will probably see a small layoff by end of 2020, as well as an employee-led mass quitting in Q1. Abandoned jobs will not be filled or they will start new employees at lower salaries.

Hiring freeze over there as well, is the rumor, but there are jobs posted? Maybe the hiring freeze rumor is wrong. Either way, looks like it'sh–ting all parts of JWN.

layoffs in January/February. Nothing to do with the earnings, at least directly.

Layoffs? Sure but not till after Christmas. We only celebrate one holiday at a time.

Yes, layoffs are coming in 2020. Outsourcing will continue in some areas. Nothing new it’s been going on for a couple of years. Cost savings is the only goal as the company looks to improve profitability before being sold.

Brick & mortar apocalypse just as $JWN drops most of a cool $B on a showcase store.

Actually, it being Black Friday, I just purchased $200 of clothing and shoes off the internet. Sierra Trading Post had just what I needed, sweet.

If you made it through this earnings, now all eyes turn to the super-critical holiday season, which will make or break the mall retailers.

Here’s how much I personally plan to spend at Nordstrom for Christmas this year: $0.00

Earnings not bad, flat for the most part:

AH recovered most of the damage from the Home Depot disaster early in the week.

So ... layoffs when? Are the conference rooms actually booked out, or should we table this discussion until after Christmas?

On Thursday or tomorrow (Friday) after earnings?
In their coverage, will Geekwire still use their stock photo of the horrid sign sculpture mess from the 5th floor of 864?
Is Nordstrom still in 864 at all? What ever happened to that sign?
So much hubris.
Nordstrom should start by canning any tech anyone pulling down more than $200K. Then rationalize and rightsize and reorg from there. You're welcome.

Several conf rooms are booked on 865/21st floor for whole day by HR. Is that a sign?

Tech groups may. Seems small to medium from what I am hearing. Good luck people! Update CV and hit those connections

Earnings are Thursday after market close. Macy’s, too. A hefty culling would make sense here.

Home Depot blew a hole in the hull today.
