What is left in Hoffman Estates Corporate and how many people are left working there? When I started in 1999 we had about 7,500 but when I got ejected in 2019 there couldn’t have been more that 500 on a given day. Did they ever consolidate into one... — read more 

I work in Avenel. We do have a meeting today around 1PM, but we weren't told what it's about. (I honestly work there... not a joke post this time...)

Just as a heads up, it looks like another video and map covering the same stuff we already know is making the rounds again and will probably land here next...

I heard there is going to be a phone call this morning about some more stores closings. Did anyone else get the message yesterday that corporate was going to call a bunch of stores telling them if they are closing or not. I work at the store in... — read more

Since I can't get ahold of anyone at Chicago Ridge, I am trying Schaumburg but they aren't answering either! So what is going on?

Why do the other retail gaints not consider buying the conpetition out and unify their legacees into one? If the end is near for Sears and the Big K, then why not go out on a high note and be frinds with an old foe. Wal-Mart could bring back KCafes... — read more 

Is Chicago Ridge still open? Another poster said it was, and I'll be in the area in a few weeks. Please advise!

Sears is replacing the empty Hecht’s at Tysons Galleria! It’s all turning around!

That’s what some in Michigan are saying, is this true?

I just passed by it on 7 Mile Road, and to my delight, the signs are still up! Does anybody know it’s closed or not? 😀

It is no longer listed on Sears' website (only the auto center is) and Google Maps says its closed too. When did they close it? How come nobody knew?

We all know that Chicago Ridge has closed but someone keeps asking about them to see if they are open. Is there anything that can be done so we don't see this same question regarding Chicago Ridge on every post on here?

Looks like the next closing list leaked last week got delayed. Anyone have a new date?

Docket No. 9465. It's not available (redacted) online, but you can still read it if you visit the court in White Plains. The motions to go after Eddie's dwindling assets outside of Sears are a go!

Seritage has been in arrears with its loan to Buffet for some time now, the cash flow is flatlining, operations is losing money hand over fist and liquidation would be the fastest way to preserve value. Olshan isn't enough? Things look bad for old... — read more 

The corporate husk of the old Sears is still trying, and struggling, to pay its bills in Chapter 11, more than two years after Eddie Lampert acquired the remaining Sears and Kmart stores from the company he used to run. According to a court... — read more

What weird old stock or other items was left in the back of some of these GIANT stores before they bit the dust? What was it like inside of some of these giant warehouses that were cleaned out? Does anyone have any good stories?

Can anyone one tell me the expected closing date for the Key Largo & Marathon Kmarts as well as the Rancho Cucamonga Sears? NOTE: I don't need to watch a video, just the date is fine.

It was always on my mind that I would definitely have to look for a new job after my store closes, so I decided to try to find something better before that. It was very scary for me to think that the store would close and that I would not be able... — read more

Something weird just happened. Sears jobs site now shows zero jobs? Probably just a system glitch: https://jobs.sears.com/en-US/search?pagenumber=2

I’m still at Sears just for pocket money. The attitude of the dying company towards the employees who are still there in the remaining stores is clear to me. However, I wonder if the attitude towards employees was much better when the company was... — read more
