Oh well this is bad. But whatever better than working in toxic walgreens. Insane vague requirements. I am not going in. It's ok I can meet my friends outside work.
@ba going in. Gotta pickup girl scout cookie inventory for the troop in Vernon Hills afterwards...
I just got the Business Update email. Merchandising.
Those of you with the invite - are you going in tomorrow or taking the call from home?
@b6 my invite says business update meeting which means I did not make the cut.
Received my meeting invite for an early morning meeting. I am ready to move on. Good luck to everyone. I am looking forward to what’s next.
I'm impacted as well. Got the meeting with my Sr. Director (my boss's boss). Digital Commerce.
@ah That's just stupid. It's not age related. Grow up.
Did anybody from DC or Supply Chain Operations get the notice?
@b3 no, Operations Support
@b2 What area? Digital?
Got the email and my senior director is in the meeting, not my VP. Debating whether to go in tomorrow to say goodbye to people.
@ah age discrimination? This is a mass layoff and isnt targeting a specific age.
@aw yes - confirmed. I’m in finance.
Yep, OMG it's more than even I thought...get ready....a very rough day for a lot of people coming up, sad
@ar for digital?
@a8 the random vp means that your vp was let go and another vp has to convey the bad news.
@OP just heard that finance has been asked to WFH tomorrow. Anyone else hearing this, or with other areas? Is it true? Can anyone confirm?
@as what area?
@ar I just received an invite too.. I think this is it.. 😔
I got the business update email with a different dmm and hr, I’m an ACM

Bunch of rooms are booked in 106 by hr it is happening. Tuesday Through Thursday
Department?!
digital
For the people who got an email what area are you in?
@ag what dept are you in?
@OP my luck has run out. I got the business update email with HR in attendance. Is any going to pursue a class action lawsuit for age discrimination?
got an email that says business update and to meet in a room or join online tomorrow. My manager has a same meeting but thought it was a mistake. My bosses boss isn't aware of anything, and says because he isn't aware of it, it doesn't bode well for him.
Are you getting now or some time ago?
@ac what area are you in?
Are you in IT? What does email say?
@aa same here. I got an invite with HR as the third wheel
Are you all in IT or what area? The ones with meetings scheduled?
@a8 Hoping that the random VP means they are moving you to that group. Mine is with the VP of my group.
More information would help. What’s the email subject, and which team are you on?
Got a weird meeting with a random VP and HR rep, but the VP isn't related to my role... expecting the worst.
