Yep. Definitely laying people off at GO. I got the meeting at 11 and was informed my team was safe.

It sure looks like a lot. Wishing the best of luck to everyone.

I recently found out they'll be doing more layoffs at KTD and probably GO soon. I know for sure CIS and Product will get hit hard. I hope you get your severance!

I personally find them to be a total waste of time and no one should be told how to do their jobs if they already knew how to do them to begin with, I also feel these tasks make it harder rather than easier for us employees to get our work done.

One time I got upset over one of my coworkers having to go on a register, I was complaining to my coworker about this, he casually told me not to worry about our coworker and to focus on what it takes to get our job done, then he told me our manager... — read more

Long days, no real breaks, schedules that make no sense. Just grind. Sleep? Maybe four hours if I’m lucky. Feels like we’re just bodies filling gaps, not people with lives. We’re constantly understaffed, and no one in charge seems to care. This isn’t... — read more

51 laid off around 200 people a few months ago and immediately replaced most of those roles with people in India. If this had happened 20 years ago it would be national news. It's not mentioned in any articles. I'm afraid my department will be... — read more 

I'm a vendor and I go into several Kroger stores. This customer that's what we call our stores we go to is one of the most miserable places any of us have to go to. HEB is by far the best customer we have. First of all, they treat us like we're... — read more

Karma is a beast. Enjoy unemployment.

Lots of good FTE and contractors let go from all over the place. Teams merging and being dissolved.

There’s been a re-org for FTEs and contractors will be let go as well. Source: My husband is on a team that received the news from their manager today.

The job cuts, which took place late last week, include people at Kroger’s downtown headquarters, its 84.51 data compilation and analysis unit at Fifth and Race streets downtown and its Kroger Technology & Digital team in Blue Ash and downtown in the... — read more

Kroger is laying off hundreds of US customer service personnel in favor of hiring overseas vendors do do the job. I know because I'm one of them being fired.

I'm so happy I'll be gone from here soon. I don't want to work for a company that treats its employees like cr-p and expects loyalty in return. Sc--w that.

Can anybody confirm whether there'll be more cuts in April?

A conference call today discussed simplifying workflow to decrease labor hours.

Is there going to be any reorg or Kroger layoffs? Any chatter, news or rumors?

Make no mistake, the Feb 2024 return to office is a way for Kroger to pay off employees without severance.

Leave while there's still time to do it on your own terms.

Please, people, for the love of everything sacred to you, make preparations for the possibility of being laid off. Look at the writing on the wall. It's not about 'if' we'll have layoffs, it's about 'when' it will happen. Be proactive or you'll end... — read more
