Thread regarding Barnes & Noble layoffs

I'm shocked BN is still standing

I gotta give credit where credit's due. I thought it would collapse years ago when I left. Seeing there are still stores around is a shock. Reading here about the treatment of employees and the state of said shops is not a shock, though. I guess no matter how much time passes, some things will not change.

Poor management. Poor sales. Less than adequate employees.”
Yes. That sums it up

Leases are up. The spaces aren’t worth staying in for cost/revenue being generated. They want to move into smaller spaces that can be setup differently. While there may be some less than stellar staff, they are not the direct cause. Supposedly they are looking for new locations but that’s been said many times before and real estate has no leads on viable properties at this time.

Considering how bad the situation at stores is right now, my guess is it won't be standing for much longer.
