In the 10 stores that i'm aware of, at least a dozen people have quit in the last two weeks. They're moving people all over the place trying to plug holes during graduations and it's been a nightmare. Most of them are talking about pay cuts ranging from 15-40% effectively between rate decrease and hours lost, and they're not even giving notice. I've been through many bad times at many companies over the last 40 years, but this is other wordly bad. And somehow, someone from the main office seems to have time to come to sites like this and try to flood them with propaganda and lies. Crazy stuff. Honestly, I'm starting to think they're not going to make it.
One person I heard said, "They talk about a 'partnership... this isn't a partnership, this is a hostage situation" and I feel that for sure.
