I see Nona's name on these posts quite a bit and that always stirs up strange memories. Weird nights in the dairy cooler, s---ing out all the nitrous in the whip cream canisters, whole cases of them; the hippie kid screaming behind the locked... — read more
52 week low....stock tanking..
Just in time for the earnings report coming up..this will be a juicy conference call..i know my store has been just slightly positive comping but store traffic seems way down.any news on the 365 front?
Fight back
By being good to each other as much as they'll allow or get away with. We're still a family in the shadows.
SOS - The ship is sinking! Check the stock price!
Folks, if any, there is literally no confidence in this management. Let's not forget we have an upcoming inventory. How about our debt? One billion dollar stock buy- back and another half-billion dollar borrowed on re-volving credit. Total borrowed... — read more
Product Relignment
It was the beginning of the end.
more layoffs?
Anybody in Sopac knows anything about team member layoffs???? I know that now at my store we are going through hunger games between TL.... wonder if team members will be affected??
Kroger
Kroger feeling the pressure too, there needs to be consolidation, too many players on the field now...Aldi and dollar stores still doing well thought haha
I still love this company
But I am sad because of what it has become. We have lost the very thing that set us apart from the competition-people. People who are dedicated and passionate about their jobs are few and far between now. Most are part time so that is easy to... — read more
layoffs 2k16
so anyone have news? I heard rumors all weekend about them combining the grobodiality team sooner than planned (this october) and all the TLs and ATLs were called up to the weekly meeting. Normally its just TLs though. As I was clocking out it seemed... — read more
3 Global Vice Presidents join WFM
You know it's a dark day when a company hires very senior officers from Walmart. Watching carefully!
Demo
Anyone know what will happen with the demo team
All team members should be aware of the site!
someone needs to anonymously send a link to this site company wide. It won't be hard to do.
How much longer do you think WF will be around for?
How much longer do you think this company has? Introducing the 365 concept I think is a sign saying main stores aren't going to continue to prosper, but some people are optimistic. Are you? Why and Why not?
WE ARE GOING ON STRIKE
We are going on strike for better wages and work conditions!
Time to get out of Wall Street's grasp!
An ideal and dreamy solution would be to sell ourselves over to a private equity firm (this is how you leave Wall Street) and grow slow like HEB does in Texas. Maybe our current leadership is doing this right now....making us sellable and viable once... — read more
It is time to move on!
Plenty of people are complaining about the state of affairs at WFM. Basically, WFM has gone too far in its misery to come back. It is not & will never be the company it was, so best piece of advice GET THE F--- OUT! It's over, it is just another... — read more
Regional not going to visit SW stores anymore????
Why doesn't regional come down to the stores anymore? I haven't seen a EC, VP or coordinator in our stores for a while now they used to visit ever tithed week. Is there a reason they're not checking in on condition and morale of th stores especially... — read more
WFM Workers Union
The CEO has described unions as herpes. He did not feel like a union was necessary because team members were treated well. I think the 4000k health insurance deductible, cuts in gainsharing due to shrinking labor budgets, and increased workload has... — read more
Wal-Mart offers e-shopping.
Today I found out that two WalMart locations in my city will be offering e-shopping. They're hiring two people in each store to shop for the customers to keep up with demand. Kinda too bad WFM is missing out on yet another revenue source. It's only a... — read more
This SOP smells more like a POS....
They have found an easy way to get rid of people. Good job!
NorCal Metro Marketing Lead Restructure again
NorCal Metro Marketing Lead Restructure again - down from 17 to 10 and then reposted for 3. Also-team consolidation waiting until after the holidays- of course! Oh yes- and attrition. Has anyone heard what will happen to the TL's that don't get the... — read more
HEB buys 6 locations in DFW
With HEB acquiring all SunFresh stores, I wonder how WFM is going to respond? Any thoughts?
New lows at quarry sw region
The stl at quarry telling guests at the case was down just because prep foods couldn't keep up with production. What a shame for those guests.
Downtown Evanston store
Does anyone know what happened to the bakery TL Monica ?
Prepared Foods Layoffs
Any updates or rumors here?
Did any store break record back to school weeks?
Just curios!
Smells better.
Seems like it stinks less like old cigarette smoke in the downtown Evanston store since hillbillary left town. Bye.
What was 6.99$ is now 6.99$ on sale,with a regular price of 10.99$..
I thought this restructuring was about LOWER prices,not keeping the same margins and to lie about the price point..check out your dept.pricing points
Love this........WF hurting so bad in NW that they rush to post this ad on indeed and can't even spell check what they post.
.....me and my buddies had a real laugh at this post on indeed, what a crock, making themselves sound like they are the best company in the world and how much they care. posted two days ago on indeed; check out first line .......Join out? Uhhhh... — read more
I still love my job but I don't see it lasting
I still love the work but these 50 hour weeks due to being so understaffed are killing me slowly. Every month 2-3 people quit and with labor at a bare minimum it feels like we're barely keeping our head above water every day. Corporate should read... — read more
Aldi
I think 365 is a way to prepare for an Aldi major expansion in the US. They already shred their way through the UK. Am I alone in this thought?
Flash and Nonna's Excellent Adventure
It was great how Flash and Nonna did a canvassing of the DFW stores last week. Keep cutting labor and eliminating positions and then come into all the stores and criticize what's wrong and how we aren't doing things well enough. Then they met with... — read more
