Thread regarding Follett layoffs

FUBAR

Current situation...wishing it wasn't true, but seriously- can it get much worse? Why does the FSS president report to a company they bought?? Tragic AF

When there is no discussion of what the plan is, you can bet it won't be good. Look at the last three years. Leadership failed to discuss anything with the worker bees until it was time to show them the door.

Follett needs new IT leadership, maybe B&T can offer that, the path for the last few years is definitely not the right direction.

Get ready for the two companies to merge - more B&T people will be kept over Follett people.

Did the higher up lie about nothing changing? Duh!

I learned all about FUBAR at Follett. Prior to Follett I never heard that at my previous job. Such a simple acronym perfectly describes Follett for the past 4 years.

So the guy who posted earlier from FSS and thought his job was totally safe because they were profitable........ Maybe not so safe?

The answer is evident. FSS will be part of Baker & Taylor sharing accounting, IT, HR and warehouses. It will take quite a bit of time to get there.
