Thread regarding Bed Bath & Beyond layoffs

The people that have not moved on can’t find a job, maybe are homeless, suffering immensely. You need sensitivity training. Grow up!

So much bitterness still from 6 months later. Have you not moved on by now? Your sadly hopeful wishes for more major cuts ahead are unfounded. Yes what happened was sad but wow please move on. Already. Way over. due.

The stores in the Midwest look horrendous. Still no job after 3 and a half months and I’m getting worried. Maybe I should apply at Bbb at the 6 month mark! Lol

Look at the stores, terrible condition, empty and poor selections. Any normal shopper can spot poor management, lack of sales force on the floor, they can see this company is in trouble! Bed Bath and Beyond has nothing to sell that you can’t get for the same price at other retailer, you can actually get help at the other retailers.

I hope and pray little bbb goes down in flames. You remaining managers already have a heads up so run now or don’t complain later.

I noticed that the December Cobra payment was about $70.00 higher. I called Wage Works Cobra and asked them why. they said that Bed Bath and Beyond only paid the subsidy until December 22, 2017. Yet another stab to the heart! You know that it goes to the full Cobra price starting January 1, 2018! Bed Bath and Beyond at snakes in the grass! May you rot in hell Steve Temares!

I have and my family and friends have boycotted Bed Bath and Beyond need to get the word out regarding this company how they are not loyal to the managers that worked there finger to the bone. All our hard was for nothing. I would rather buy something with no coupon and pay more money then shop there. You will never get my money. The managers that got let go need to get together. Bitter your damn right I am

As for Amazon, another lie, just a scapegoat.

Online retail makes up 8-9% of total retail and Amazon is only a fraction of that 9%, so Amazon isn't doing this, it's happening because since 2009, all we've had is an enormous bubble created by loose lending, 7 year car loans, bubbles everywhere.

Now they're popping, because McDonald's employees driving 60K SUV's and students borrowing 250K is not sustainable.

Stop listening to the mainstream media and start doing research. There you will find out what's really going on.

The revenue drop has nothing to do with the public finding out about the management and everything to do with the current economic climate, which is why every retailer is going down. It's also why the layoffs happened in the first place.

You want to believe it's the other way around but that's wishful thinking.

The entire retail sector and economy is in a tailspin, but of the course the media and government won't tell you that. They'll tell you all is well, economy growing. etc, etc.

All lies.

UPDATE!!!! Sorry if you have been with the company 8plus years, and making 50k plus you are not going to last. ( think of Minimum-wage $15 the average associate full-time will make 30 K a year average part timer 15 K a year company can afford 50 K plus kills payroll Amazon kills all.
