Anybody have any new news?
Just wondering if anything new has come up. I’m still think August- September. I do know some cross docks haven’t been getting their loads until after 7 am though.
Publix newsletter August for pizza. Sept for ice cream
Sooner than you think...my guess smaller accounts Target WM alot quicker....they were all trying to sugarcoat more by saying 2020. My ASS
Right Business Decision
We all my have our thoughts and feel bad for what is happening, but the company chose the right business decision. Let’s all be more positive and optimistic about our futures with or without Nestle. Job hunting s---s for everyone, but we all are very... — read more
Publix said oct/nov
For those of you that have Publix stores we were told in Florida they looking at a 4th qtr transition October/November date. That gives us about 5 months at least. If I see anything else I will keep posting

Nestle is lying
Its more around 52000 + employees in Nestle Ice Cream And Pizza division that will ultimately lose their jobs. Only a handful of managers and a few others are being transferred.
Was the writing on the wall for a while?
In all honesty, I’m surprised with the number of people that took this situation with so much sock ad surprise. I had a feeling for some time that something was gonna go down. Maybe I didn’t know when and in what form, but definitely there were a lot... — read more
What's the next to go?
Maybe not this month or the next, but I'm really doubtful Nestle will stop here. So what do you think, what will be the next to go?
Still coming to terms with this
Twelve years. I know I should be satisfied with the package we are getting, but even that is bitter sweet with all the limitations and stipulations attached to it. I'm happy for people who are okay with this, but that doesn't mean we have to all feel... — read more

Why did Nestle finally go to OT and VROT
IMPORTANT QUESTION: why did Nestle finally go to OT and VROT (what year was that) Could we have a class action suit for previous years of NOT paying us OT
Anything else expected for today?
Just hoping to confirm that we got all the announcements yesterday, and all the people and departments that were affected by the changes know it by now? I'm worried that more might be coming even if it sounds unlikely, and hoping that somebody can... — read more

The following information is coming from HR directly. I have an HR friend who was finally able to communicate with me and gave me some of the details. It's kind of jumbled but these are the details: The frontline package is 1 week for every completed... — read more
I'm happy with how this was done
Am I the only one? I think Nestle is being fair to us. We get retention, we get severance, and we get time to decide what to do next. I've been here for nine years, and I am going to leave with no hard feelings. I wish more people felt like this, for... — read more
Unfairness of it all
Does anybody else feel like they're being blackmailed with severance and there's nothing we can do about it? Makes me so mad and sad that they can do that to us. I know severance is not a legal right, but if it's provided, then it shouldn't be used... — read more

How many people are gonna lose their jobs realistically?
I’m familiar with the numbers that are present in the media and circulating among the folks, but I tend to think tham much more people will lose their jobs than speculated. How will the numbers look in the end?
Long-Term Plan
We weren’t part of the plan. This wasn’t just a job for me, it was a career. I have never experienced being laid off before, so this is tough to swallow. Time to execute my own long-term plan. Good luck to all of you!
What happens to 401k?
Before and after the layoff date.
This is really not being handeled well
Let me see if I get this right, since I got this from my mom - you are being laid off, but there is no end date given, so everybody has to wait and see instead of being able to start looking for a job in advance. That's if you want to receive your... — read more
Is it really just one week per year?
Wasn't the official package two weeks per year until recently?

It’s not over, yet!
But yes they will pay severance in biweekly payments. Retention pay will be a lump sum. Get your 60 hour weeks while you can to up that retention pay. There’s no internal jobs in my state so taking another nestle job isn’t an option. But I’ll be here... — read more

I'm done giving my all
Like someone said in another thread, I will stay until the end but I'm so done going above and beyond for this company. I did so for over ten years and this is how they repay me??? No, I'm done giving my all. Until I can leave with my severance, I'll... — read more
What positions?
They say we can transition to other positions in the company but they know full well for a lot of people that would mean having to move, something majority can't do. So Nestle looks like a good guy for offering something they full well know will only... — read more
