Which departments/areas of WM H.O. consistently avoid being targeted for layoffs and could be considered low risk/stable environments?

Wow, that escalated quickly. And so eloquent.
Pharmacy department is always a stable place for now.
Crafts/fabrics, paint, furniture, sporting goods, floral and seafood are under achievers that could all easily be let go.
None. If you want that level of stability, find a job in a company whose reason to exist doesn’t depend only on retail and commerce.
Guessing the anti corruption department is not getting impacted.
Work for a dept that has a true P&L...all the one off parts of the company are subject to layoffs like merch ex, central ops, modulars,marketing, real estate, store planning, etc... But even the jobs that have P&L's are also not immune
