BARNES & NOBLE plans to CLOSE & LOCK ITS DOORS FOR GOOD

While the financially failing and poor decision making company prepares to go the way of
Toys "R" Us and Lord & Taylor, why did it take so long to see all of the shady goings on?
Why couldn't we see all of the disgusting actions of the management in the first few years of our employment there? Or did we, and didn't really think or care to do anything about it?

Why didn't anyone start a union when the company was doing well? We wouldn't have all of these really rotten people running the place into the ground and we certainly would have been treated better!

Oh well, hindsight truly is hindsight is 2020. And nothing will change the fact that this company will never make a comeback. Amazon has already seen to that.
And by the way, I have a great job with them. So there is hope for the brave ones left, get out while you still have an income- as badly as the pay is at B&N!

That’s right. Before the Riggio’s lost interest & distanced themselves from BN, things weren’t as bad as they became since 2018.

Even having a dress code seemed a bit much, but still, things were better then.

It didn’t used to be bad.
When Steve Riggio jumped ship it began its spiral. Then when all Lenny wanted to do was be in the Columbus Day parade & hobnob with Tony Bennett it went further down the rabbit hole. The revolving CEO door put the coffin nail in the declining company. Firing all the employees who gave a damn , totally k–led it.
