Thread regarding W.B. Mason layoffs

The Mole Report Dec 31st

as the year comes to an end, the mole is reporting the following:

the reason so many Amazon packages are in warehouses is because the company buys a lot from Amazon to fill orders they can’t purchase from other vendors due to credit issues.

WB also buys a ton from Uline, the company they are trying to replicate in the shipping and packaging category. embarrassing.

on that topic, the buyer responsible for almost all of the shipping and packaging left a few weeks ago and will not be replaced. she was verbally abused to the point of no return.

the worst December on record is now complete. sales across Masonville significantly down with no rebound expected. the real numbers, and not the fabricated ones. Brockton will report, shows a forecast of $1.18 B for 2025.

furniture continues to plummet as people have not come back to the office and never will. Office furniture is dying on the vine.

headcount cuts will continue through January and February as the mothership tries everything possible to save the sinking ship.

thank you to the mole for continuing to bring this information out. the good people still there deserve to know the truth.

Essendant probably didnt want sales reps because they could raise their prices on them. Disruption is the way they succeed but now they're just conforming.

it’s actually rather sad. i remember the eassandant guy saying that most accts don’t want a salesperson. that’s about when the call center started . that’s also the all time high posted number for the fiscal year. from that point on, sales declined . morale declined . lawsuits increased . people started leaving . it would have been nice if frodo took a long look in the mirror to find the failures. oh yeah, based on his appearance ( misbuttoned , stained shirts etc), he might not have a mirror .

what would be ideal to see is a meehan actually taking responsibility for the downfall, instead of screaming at $65000/ year employees .

failure starts and ends with the top— yo meehan!! get with it !!

You're right about that!
The numbers are the numbers, and Amazon is not going to get worse they're only going to get better.
It's only a matter of time till they start doing Janitorial supplies the right way.

all good points. except you missed out on the faaaah lower than expected sales numbers. mason is prob leveraged to the hilt and amazon is chipping away every day at the available acct base.

seems like the oscar meyer wieners up there in brockton were all talk, but when confronted with the inside info only an actual employee would know, they suddenly go silent. you know this must be driving Frodo crazy, since he can’t find or plug the leak . mr/ms mole: keep the good news coming!!!

Stonehill college is literally the best business school in the world.

Mason is losing business to Amazon. The brain trust at the top think it’s a great idea to then go and buy their inventory from Amazon…

Classic 8-D chess.

clearly, brockton is worried about the mole. That is why one of their lackeys is posting on this board trying to defend. must be pretty frustrating, knowing that you have someone on the inside giving the real information to people. Who is it? Can you figure it out, Richie, Mattie, and staff of kool-aid drinkers?

karma is real and actions have consequences.

so meehan, why don’t you give us some solid real info? let’s start with dec 2024 numbers. not some BS made up , but real numbers . you know dec was horrible . come on , big boy, where’s the info showing the mole was incorrect?

the mole is on point, and that is pi----g you off. otherwise you wouldn’t waste the effort to write a post that sounds like a 6th grade school girl, whining about this and that.

you are terrified that people will see right thru your chubby lil hands, and see that you are disrespectful, dishonest, and heading the way of the dinosaur .
