I haven't seen any mention at all on here concerning Store Scanning Specialists or Store Systems Integrators Anybody know if they plan to keep us around in the SW?

All positions eliminated, we are expected to reapply if we want to stay with the company. No more store level MTLs, only one SGA per store, one metro floating SGA, and a new position of BC Metro Creative Team Leader. We got f***ed.

Just sharing the list - I may be missing some stores - it does not mean that the store is affected if it's on the list - this is just a list for folks that struggle with acronyms (e.g., YLE = Yale) - here it goes: (ABN) Albany, -- (ABS) Arabella... — read more 

Yes. don't resign today, wait. If you wait, you get an extra month of insurance. Also, with the Affordable Care Act, your upcoming insurance is dependent on your last year of work. so if you are FT for a year. and go to PT you still get FT benefits... — read more 

my stl at bridgeport store is never there anyway. why don't they get rid of ms. s instead??

We have had our entire marketing team cut here so far. Does anyone know anything yet about Store Scanning Specialists down here in FL? Or anywhere for that matter.

Shit almighty. We just saw four of our team leaders leaving the store--two in tears. Hearing from friends at other stores that this is going on all over PDX metro. Any news from Seattle or BC?

They've taken advantage of us for WAY TOO LONG! We all know this past year has been nothing but labor cuts, higher expectations and pressure to give smaller wages. F*** 'EM! Let's unionize! Let's get what we deserve. Whole Foods isn't much better... — read more 

Whole Foods employees spend a lot of their salary at Whole Foods. The way I see it, if they cut your salary that is less money you will have to spend at WF. Although it is convenient to shop were you work, I suggest you start shopping at farmers... — read more 

So Store Graphic Artists are to re apply for their jobs..since there are backups and 2nd sign makers. What about the field associates. The ones who do nothing. Why not cut all of them and then save jobs for the people in the trenches.

People getting cut left and right.

WFM TMs need someone to protect them from Global's "vision"! The old culture does not exist anymore. There is no "empowerment" of TMs. company leadership have played their hand for all to see now. $4 million (was it?) spent on the recent ad campaign... — read more 

Are they considered supervisors? I'm just curious because in the SP region there's a lot per team! Like 2 -4 educators per team!

any TM with any disciplinary action is getting the axe todat. tomorrow everyone else

We just heard. All marketing positions in the PN are GONE!

I say F OFF to Joe Rogoff and the rest of you top-heavy regional fs! Take a look at our ridiculously over-paid and out-of-touch regional coordinators! They are so unnecessary!! PFDS and BAKE teams are being combined and TLs are getting the axe... — read more 

That's all what I am asking for. I understand that we cannot back out on the current layoffs decision, but regardless of if I survive or not I'd like you to slow down

I am hearing they are just posting emails about it?! Numbers?

Does this mean we can all stop pretending we haven't heard the rumors that Whole Foods WILL NOT be on the list for the first time next year? SHOCK SHOCK!

If we want our voice truly heard, hit em in the pocketbook. That is where their sole focus has shifted anyway........just like any other greedy corporate company. F*** the little guys and keep the rich ones rich.

out here in a $179/night hotel room for 2 weeks opening a new store while people are losing their jobs? slow your roll. company clearly doesn't care about their employees any more than a conventional grocery store.

any news on store scan specialists or MSI's being layer off? I'm off today and no one at my store knows anything yet. STL is conveniently not there today, but has scheduled some meetings with other positions for later this afternoon.

I am a CS Sup and my tl just texted me saying the front end is good and no cuts would be made. Anybody from the SP region have any info?

gone

In Florida regions, some marketing teams have been cut already. Yes everyone except for 1 store artist/sign maker in which they will have to reapply. They will open a Metro marketing leader position in place.

Any buyers let go?
