Thread regarding Staples Inc. layoffs

Last weeks layoffs

Massive layoffs going on today with Staples/Sycamore. These corporations have no soul! Always before the holidays, but I’m sure the shareholders will have a full belly.

This was posted last week, did I miss some layoffs take place? Not that I don't believe the company would lay off people this close to Christmas, mid you. Anybody has more info on this?

And like every other department and team that has been "restructured" thus far in this process, it is the beginning of the end. More "restructuring" is sure to follow that will lead to "elimination" should the current management modus operandi hold true to form.

What happened to the furniture department? Was it eliminated? What was the thinking there?

Hi Post ID: @QNfxGFf-arb,

Here's your answer to "Hey Shira, what is your favorite quote now?"

'Today I will be as useful as the "G" in Lasagna.'

Merry Christmas.

The continued slow death and all the while passing out pain to employees and their families. Gee, thanks Shira and company. You sold out the company because you did not have a clue how to guide it into the future. Take that weird a-- smile and dirty teeth back to Bain Capital. I am sure there is a spot for you and your bonus you will get for non performance. Absolutely sickening. Hey Shira, what is your favorite quote now?

700 is indeed coming in January at corporate offices, but 700 non-corporate office employees, mainly outside account consultant and supporting employees, Staples Promotional Products employees, and other various department employees were laid off within the past month.

I think the 700 is coming in Jan. I'm confused.

Yes.

There have been over 700 layoffs within the past month across multiple departments. The latest round took place last Wednesday in the furniture department.
