Kroger is just more open and honest about what they are planning. 3 year plan to shrink the corporate workforce by 1/3 (3000 jobs) due to duplication and technology (read AI)

Nike and Kroger both have one thing in common, they S-U-C-K the big one
@cv , in my opinion, the most “bitter” are the AT&T employees; 525 archive pages, 40 threads per page, NOT including 100’s of deleted threads during union negotiations. Nike 141 and Kroger 14 pages.

Be here. The B student, the bike people here can’t handle the truth they rent this great talent. They are below average and it’s hurtful for them and just like our leaders su-k. So do the base of core employees.
It’s a special type of leadership talent to make the stock drop 44% YTD and the employees behind it
@cw , you missed out on "Vibe Excelling". See Kroger thread below:
“Where is the Senior Leadership team?”

Worked at Kroger FM office in town, the dept I was in used an Excel sheet to book rooms! This was back in 2017!
Nike people are the most bitter on this entire board of employees from myriad of world wide employers.
You do realize that by posting here, you are representatives of what Nike is all about?
A bunch of dim-witted, arrogant, angry, bickering buffoons.
No wonder your company's going down the drain!
@bs it is a grocery store. Unlike Nike, they actual sell products that people can't live without...food. They don't need to develop the next whizzy product to stay in business. As OP pointed out this is likely the result of AI tools. Give you employees tools that make them more productive and you need less employees.
BS here: I am not fired and I bet your sitting under my org and being manager by someone on my team.
I just call it how I see it. Nike is B students and Kroger is the C and D students. That is life, just accept it. The A and A+ are at Apple, BH, Amazon.
It’s ok, you accept your talent level. I am at B at best. No shame. Sorry your sensitive feelings got hurt.
BS here. At best, I am a B student hence why I fit into Nike. I could never make it anywhere else.
Nikes culture is toxic. That is how we work, it happens at the corporate level and here.
Bz you must be the D student
Most companies want to get rid of their workforce. Then they will wonder where their customers went and why everyone is poor and shoplifting rates have skyrocketed.
@bs and let's guess, you think you're an "A Student"? 😜 You are the toxic culture we write about, loser.
I worked at Kroger before Nike. Kroger is so, so behind. They need to clear the board with those employees. It’s mostly C and D students. At least Nike is mostly B students
