@m6 Yes. All in optical. In the field it was the regional sr directors and half of the 140 VCDCs. At the HO a couple of project store support team members.
I remember this one time sometime that someone once got laid off.
I've been told salaried managers will be restructured in the new year.
@OP there have been no layoffs. What a fat a$$ lie.
No major mass layoffs at Walmart have been reported or confirmed within the last 10 days
Reorganizations happen all the time at Walmart, and sometimes they can trigger some smaller layoff pockets.
WARN notices are only required if a certain # or % of a site is impacted over a 30 or 90 day window (example: 500+ impacted or more than 33% impacted at a specific site). Some states may have stricter rules that trigger WARNs for smaller impacts (example: California, New York, etc.).
From what I've heard, Walmart has typically given a 90 day "job search" leave before the actual impact date, so the WARN notices may be filed 30 days after the employees are notified they have been impacted (WARN is typically a 60-day notice).
These smaller layoff waves have become more common at Walmart, and don't usually hit the news. My heart goes out to anyone who is impacted. Hopefully, you will be able to land a new role soon.
This is real. My org was affected yesterday in operations
Confirmed Health&Wellness reorg with layoffs impacting about 75 people so far. Mostly in field leadership positions.
This is totally unconfirmed. There’s no news articles, or WARN notices issued. But, there are plenty of ignorant, low life “d-mber than a box of rocks” people who post stuff like this.
However, it’s pretty well known Walmart hires and fires hundreds of associates every day. It is possible some low performing slackers were let go.
But no, no walmart layoffs.
It is confirmed. I know of several people who have been let go
@OP Liar liar pants on fire.
Completely unconfirmed
