I am not sure if I should get upset about Thailand - what happened to all American jobs we lost over last two decades. We should get more jobs here in the States, do not ship jobs overseas Kellogg...

Things are not going in a good directions as our sales are soft. Every time something like that happens we have large layoffs.

Layoff's at Kellogg in Colorado happening now.

So, the numbers are out, another 7% drop in sales, and it seems that things will continue to slide. We have all seen this coming but very little has been done to adjust and ride new trends. I am sure we will be seeing a bit of layoffs and closures in... — read more 

That's what I heard

I was let go last year, 70 of us were cut by Kellogg, it was handled fairly well but still I am upset as I am unable to move on in this tough economy.

Just because closing Kellogg’s Charlotte plant, 195 jobs will be lost. They will also close plants in Australia and Canada, but increase the production at a plant in Thailand. It is all about profit as always!!!

Something does not add up here

Anybody knows?

Now, please help me understand how we manage to make ton of money and lay off people at the same time. Kellogg's problems are not that big, cannot we find some work for our folks.

I keep hearing things about an upcoming reorg here at Kellogg... I am not sure if they will be downsizing during the reorg, any inputs here?

This all madness started when Robin Ajello from Bloomberg wrote a piece on Monday (11/4/2013) on a major workforce cut that Kellogg Co. is getting ready to implement. I am not going into too much analysis here, but there a few items Robin references... — read more

battle creek mi is getting decimated

So, to recap, 2 THOUSAND folks will be cut, it will last thru 2017. Do not tell me that 7% reduction in work force is nothing, Kellogg is going down fast. We also seem to have realized that Kashi was a fiasco, contrary to some folks stating here, I... — read more 

I somewhat agree with "Anonymous , Tuesday 11/05/13 00:09:47" - We did change focus, more analysis and less relationships - it's still the problem, we lost the touch with customers and buyers. Technology itself is not bad, spreadsheets are not bad... — read more 

The problem with Kellogg is they decided to hire computer wizards and walked away from sales people and merchandisers. They looked at how knowledgeable you were with spread sheets instead of knowledge of the food business. At one time Boston had the... — read more
