Thread regarding Sam's Club layoffs

Why can't they come out and tell us?

You know, that's what this is about. I don't mind that they are getting rid of my position . They are a business and have to do what they have to do. It doesn't matter if I think that most of these changes are obviously being made by someone who doesn't have a clue. My opinion doesn't matter. What I think is ridiculous is that they can't come out and tell us. Obviously, they know what they are going to do so what is the purpose of keeping it a secret? If we know what is gong to happen, then we can figure out what we are going to do. What if a position opens up, what if a job opens up elsewhere? I know someone that received a job offer but she doesn't want to give up her severance if there vis one and why should she? She, as well as myself, has been dedicated to this company for over 27 years. Why would Audit and the cash office lead be treated differently? Why are we taking from our job and just put wherever they need us with no regard for our feelings whatsoever? I don't mind doing whatever but I mind being treated like a little pawn. And really, all they did was elimunate the filing and 2 reports you never really did much with anyway. So I still have 90% left of my job. All we really want is to know what we will be offered as far as another position, severance, etc. I really can't inderstand all the secrecy. Everyone is ver y stressed out, and hateful to one another. I'm pretty sure everyone would feel the same if they were in our position.

Well said, @SB8d5c2-5bid. Well said.

I am no longer to check paperwork just put it together with the recap. It seems like every club is different. It makes no sense to me. I am with you just tell us so we can move on one way or another.

Everything except filing. Of course I help on the dock too but, by taking away the file cabinets, they inky saved me about 10 minutes a day. On the flip side, if I had research something, it would take me a lot longer.

Well, since I have to pay my bills, I can"t just quit. I'm sure most are in the same position. I'll keep waiting like everyone else but I sure hope they figure out something soon. People are just getting mean and nasty. You get on here looking for information and you have all kinds of people on here posting b.s. or telling you too stoo whining, just quit, etc. I don't understand why those people even get on here. I mean if it didn't pertain to me. I don't think I would even be on here. Of course, I have better things to do. I funny have time to waste just trying to piss people off.

What are you doing that you have most of your job left? Just curious because what they have me doing is maybe 10% of what I was doing in receiving I spend the majority of my time on the floor.

They know people are stressing. I think that's part of their plan. If some quit before the severance is offered then they save some money. They have their date to spill it and won't budge before that. It s---s I know... I was in audit. I knew something was going to happen, but thought we had another year. I was way off lol. Good luck to you!
