Thread regarding Follett layoffs

Another round?

Are there more layoffs in the horizon? Any ideas of what departments may get hit? Wholesale or "B2B" seems to be struggling

Two FSS HR gone in the last 2 days. One about to hit the 24 year mark and the other part of the revolving door at former FES. The ACs pull their weight helping with the sales process and consultant teams have seen prior layoff rounds. Bunch of groups moving to the corporate building. What happens to the rest? Cuts happening more steadily this time. It's like they think if it is one here and one there, no one will notice.

LOL, as we have seen over and over, consultants are never on the chopping block-only employees.

I heard that the Academic Consultant team is on the chopping block. What do they actually do? They are not needed.

I hear around the ivory tower that at least one GVP and a realignment of stores to get rid of a few RM positions. You know, give your RM more stores so you see them less.

Running a business on pure bottom line is death for the organization. Bottom line clouds good judgement and common sense. If you run a business with the best interest of the business...the bottom line will follow. Short term thinking gets you no where.

RG is running the numbers from January rush to determine when/who/how many. He will make bonus this year on the backs of employees if necessary.
