Topics regarding layoffs at Walgreens

Could someone explain....

Forgive me for my ignorance but what exactly is Mr. Wentworth's incentive for leaving a comfortable retirement to try and resurrect Walgreens. If I recall, there was a mention (maybe on Reddit?) of a $12,000,000 Walgreens stock package and a couple... — read more

December layoffs rumor?

There is a rumor going around that 1k people from the support center will be let go in December. Has anyone else heard this? Is there any truth to this? I’m not sure how much more I can take :(

Told You So…

For those who scoffed or even scolded me- told you minimal to nothing was going to change. They allowed TB to lead a TH, but worse- to stick around until she got all of those RSUs. And it’s only going to get worse, not better. DISGUSTING. Have some... — read more

Company Sit Out 11/28?

I'm not motivated by Tracey to show up in person at the end of the month. These people are absolutely tone deaf, and I'm not willing to allow them to feel an ounce of satisfaction or success. Their lack luster management has morale at an all time... — read more

Tracey out of touch

She has a leader come on and speak about Mr. Walgreen giving up his pay for a year…then gets defensive about her pay and her $120k stock bonus…? Disgusting.

WOW what a company.....

My insurance for 2024 goes up 30%, and with a so called raise of an insult like tipping your waitress a penny, that's the final straw for me. They are the worst of the worst.

This town hall…

Why is Tracey leading this? Halfway through this and she’s just wasting our time. Working “differently” is still doing more. “Cost-conscious culture” is a joke if executives took their own bonuses after taking away from us and firing over 260 people... — read more

Return To Office?

Here we are, about three weeks away from the “return to office” day, with zero communication. I for one hope this isn’t being tracked by badge, swipes or whatever because I will definitely live in my time in the office even if we are required to go... — read more

Meanwhile, somewhere…

RB is having her 1/4” thick toenails filed down in some poor pedicurist’s chair with a stalagmite mound of clippings next to her chair- all on our dime.

No wonder this company is tanking

Went to fill a script today and of course our cr-ppy insurance denies the medication. The cost to fill it was $725! This is a very standard topical. This was called into a mail order pharmacy and without using insurance it’s $65! This has happened... — read more

So, Tim after watching your video where you introduced yourself to Walgreens employees I decided to do a little research about your work experience. I am impressed by what I saw. Most people with this company would probably not guess that you... — read more

No merit raises or bonuses for banded.

HR / support office staff won't be receiving merit increases or bonuses this year. Looks like they're wanting people to leave instead of laying off / severancing people.

UPDATE PLEASE

on October 9th sickout! Anyone have info? TIA!

Is there a sickout 10/9?

And if so- why maybe only pharmacists?? They’re certainly VERY important, obviously! But would think a collective sickout from all levels would send a cohesive message, like oh-say… Why does UptownCrazyClown still have a job??????????? 🥁🥁 Same... — read more
