Millburn Is A Ghetto

The store leader is ignorant and loud and I have never met a more unprofessional person in my life. That store has steadily declined since she got there. She is nothing more than a loud mouthed bully that could never make it anywhere but Whole Foods... — read more

San Antonio Quarry closing?

i find this hard to believe. The location sucks, and i heard it was going to be remodeled & updated. Anyone know the truth? The Vineyard store has incompetent leadership, but keeps hobbling on, for now, somehow, despite the rampant theft.

Watch all the STLs stress

Its fun watching sales dip and leadership stress. If it makes anyone feel better, they are just as miserable as the tms. Doesnt mean you should have sympathy for them. Remember: they are jokers with egos that consider themselves good buisness men... — read more

North Atlantic raising hundreds of prices before thanksgiving.

We are raising the prices on hundreds and hundreds of items the week before thanksgiving. So I guess these are the "price investments" that were made at the expense of hundreds of team member jobs?! Are any other regions doing this?

Florida turns the heat on STLS

Two seasoned store team leaders fired in a space of 3 weeks. Guess, they will spend Thanksgiving this year with their real families. Why not just eliminate some very useless regional positions if the game is about cost savings?

Success outside of WFM?

I am curious about those who have left WFM and gotten other jobs? What kind of jobs did you get? Is the pay better or worse? How did your time, experience and skill set developed at WFM help or hurt you in your job search?

The job market is lousy.

I feel stuck and need a change, but having a bachelor's and supervisory experience doesn't seem to mean anything. You need master degrees, certifications or experience. How can you ever get experience, when entry level spots don't pay a liveable... — read more

A guy in my store was fired because a girl from a different department reported a rumor to store leadership that he raped someone.

Not saying that he couldn't have done it, but there are two sides to every story. I can't believe all it takes now is a rumor to get someone fired; what happened to guilty before proven innocent? If there was proof, then they should have reported it... — read more

Why do Ken Meyer and David Lannon still have a job?

Ken and David were hired as global Vice Presidents at 838k a year both plus bonuses, yet the company is doing so much worse even with two people in new positions. Why doesn't Walter Robb get rid of them?
