If they were fired, who would take the Old Navy documents and replace Old Navy with Charlotte Russe? Who would hire the consultants to do the HR work? The people position is a very important role.

I hope the first thing Diane changes is the People team, they are worthless.

I heard Diane Neal accepted the CEO position at Charlotte Russe. Jenny is out! I hope Diane brings her team with her. All hail Diane!

Question, if they fire Jenny and the Old navy team, how are the 10 non-Old Navy people left going to run the company?

That's nothing. At the last CR corporate lay off, the people who were not Jenny's Old Navy team were laid off. The Old Navy peeps who were laid off, were brought back on as consultants. Now those "laid off" old navy peeps are being hired back one at... — read more 

Rumor has it in finance, CR is taking yet another line of credit. Also, we lay off in the foeld, but promote in corporate.... Unreal

I guess I am bit shocked that WWD is telling the whole world how bad CR is doing, and that Jenny Ming is about to be fired. There will be a lot more changes at CR, now we don't have to worry just about layoffs, now we get to worry about a new person... — read more 

The company went to a tiered structure for their ASM positions

Wow, that article is awesome. I'm going to celebrate at lunch. Bub-bye Jenny. Can't wait for them to fire all those arrogant assholes from old navy. Nothing can be as bad as Jenny.

Can someone post the layoff docs to this message board?

You can view the lay off docks and talking points on web.

Same as Old Navy did, they are laying off in the stores at ASM level.

Was something announced this week?

Face book is on fire with thoughts on fired people.

I'm not sure who your "low level" keys are that you ate hiring or promoting but I can tell you this all of my keyholders are as talented and qualified as my ASM. We as a team are up double didgits YTD because they are all as good as one another. I've... — read more 

They say a field is only as good as the corporate team supporting them. We are doomed!

The leaders of the Old Navy-CR Team, we want to thank all the corporate people for their hard work, and allow them to get off early every Friday before a holiday. Let’s see, the field? We will thank you for your hard work by having you work before... — read more 

Hope the good talent that's left in the field gets their shit together and finds a new competent employer...u know f21 is drooling on themselves! Charlotte is in the same boat as Pacsun....

what was the announcment for this week.. layoff.. what positions?

The timing is great, do a layoff this week since all the precious buyers are in NYC. Don't want the buyers to know what a dump they work at.

Does anyone know what Monday and Tuesday's big news company wide call is about? Are we going out of biz? Pay decrease? Closing stores? More random delights?

What is on facebook? On the CR facebook page?

Look on Face Book

I have worked w/CR over 7yrs & I've seen a lot of changes. My team keeps me going everytime I walk through those doors & I'm more concern for them. I know we have that conference call on Mon~please does anybody know what its about?

Haha! This board is hilarious. The retail job market is the strongest its been in years, instead of complaining how bad Jenny Ming and her Old Navy goons destroyed CR, maybe its time to find a new company to work for that will make you happy. Its... — read more

Its going to be too late when Advent realizes that Jenny and her morons from Old Navy are the terminal cancer that is killing CR. So many of the people that Jenny brought with her from Old Navy are so dumb, I cannot even express how many times they... — read more 

I wish our owners would finally send someone in to get the true! How much money and good people does this company have to lose before the light bulb goes off? After 6 years loving this company, it is sad!

You are all mean. None of you have any idea how hard the PEOPLE team and the rest of Jenny’s Old Navy-Gap people work. Do you really think it’s easy to get canned from your last company because you were ineffective and come to a new specialty retail... — read more 

That is so true! I have decided to go from field to HR because of the perks! I mean, why should I bust my ass running my stores through EVERY holiday with no support? I have no input into the half baked ideas trickling down from corporate, through my... — read more
