Thread regarding Wal-Mart Stores Inc. layoffs

Walmart Canada

So there are no department managers anymore... and are making us all apply to different positions. Does that mean that if we dont get the job they will lay us off? I dont think the new hours are so bad... but are they gonna have the sames shifts every week? Or are we gonna be flipped all over the place? I dont know how people with young kids are gonna be able to deal with it.

@MUjv05P-clz - sorry, but its the product and price that sells itself not you, unfortunately. sales will continue to grow without you or me. we are monkeys pushing buttons and moving boxes.

MUjv05P-zyg. rude and hateful. have you stopped to think the stores are where the cash registers are, not HO. you get paid for whatever you do or did, in part due to the stores ringing up sales. the stores have not been hurt nearly as much as HO, regional etc. must be a reason for that.

Clearly the people that work at store level care.

Store level. As far as I know the schedules will mirror more of ASM schedule. Close shifts will be close of store. A lot more weekends and a lot more flipping. Remember it is all based on the needs of the business. Not the needs of the associate. Good luck and hope the program works well for you.

Yes Canada, but what level? There's department managers at store level, warehouse and home office. Different jobs, same title.

post said Canada! and pretty much yes if you do not find another job by your lay off date you're gone. make sure if you don't get accepted for anything else to let them know before your exit date or, as i've been told, you do not get your severance pkg.
