Thread regarding Follett layoffs

I've said enough already

Management in the warehouse treat employees like feces. Literally, walking into the building with their heads held down and if you so much as ask a question or challenge any decisions they are/have made, goodbye! I understand its a warehouse job with only a HS degree required (if that even!), but I'm not asking for a 6-figure/year job, just a little respect.

Of course, my manager makes sitting back in his comfortable, Target-esque chair, eating a piece of fruit look difficult. Honestly, the turnover rate at this company is the worst I have ever seen in my employment. I know, I know, if I don't like it, go somewhere else, but the truth is, benefits are great, fellow co-workers are great, hours great, just management sucks. Plain. And. Simple.

Don't take your irritation out on your employees, and don't treat us like one of your shi**y children. Especially when certain employees have evidence of personal-past mistakes, possible x-rated pics from online, and a variety of other things that blackmailing could benefit from. But, you work in a warehouse and couldn't afford the necessities to keep the art of buying my silence. So, good luck!

I heard Accenture was at the home office now, wonder who they are reviewing?

The consulting firm will return a report that the employees are paid too much. Because of staff reductions, hours reductions the front line employee needs to be reclassified. The new classification will be paid less. Anyone above the classification pay will not face a pay cut. They'll be abused until they quit. It's happened at Follett in the recent past. It is happening today. If they've hired a consultant, it'll happen a whole lot more in the foreseeable future.

Yep, Edelman. How can ML say she doesn't like consultants with a straight face at the town halls.

This starts at the leadership level of the company. The good news is they hired a consulting firm to find out what the employees think about this place. Millions down the tube.
