On his Wikipedia bio, under Bezos Expeditons is a partial list of companies he has been at least in part funded. One of those is----Workday. Does he have access to our personal information? Before the sale goes through?

Spent 5 + years at WFM. My position was eliminated in last year's first round of layoffs. I had one allotment of the 3,000+ hour stock grant. It was not fully vested. Looking in my Fidelity account, it appears the grant is now 0. They said when I... — read more

What's the good the bad and the ugly of us being sold to Amazon in everyone's store. Honestly I don't really know what to make of it. Could be good or reallly bad...serious commentary only!

Amazon introduced the go store only a few months ago, the "perfect" model of their "customer-centric" model-- a store where no interaction with someone who might show an emotion might possibly be interpreted a wrong way. They are proud of the fact... — read more 

Again, we are getting conflicting messages about potential layoffs here. AMZN's officials are denying any plans about potential layoffs, paint rosy picture of what's about to come. On the other hand, 'sources close to the company' claim that the... — read more

What do we as TM'S do with our empty stocks? Shall we sell what we can now or wait it out?

OK - so let's think how liberating it is to be acquired by Amazon. We do not have to fear competition any more, no anxiety about prices and margins, we simply do not have to produce profits any more - that's Amazon's way - we'll need to grow, that's... — read more
