Anyone have any details...I’ve only heard of SALs, Supply Chain, Merchandising, and Facilities being affected ... either your last day is before year end or before bonuses are paid...who else can confirm/deny or enlighten on this??? I swear if it’s me, I’ll give as many details as possible on myself so you’re all aware if you could be next.... I think we should work together here....

The original poster also mentions 1/19. Has anyone heard if there will be more layoffs this week?

I’ve heard Daytona call center is pretty much done. What about Maitland? Skeleton crew? Or were all the rumors about the lease not being renewed true? I know at one point, there were renovations scheduled for the second floor and I believe they have been on hold.
Nothing confirmed but have heard the 16th may be news around Tech, Facilities or Operations
Can anyone confirm anything happening at the Daytona and Maitland centers on the 16th?
The ten year is a myth, two of the three associate I released had only been here two years. the ten year thing came from the meeting at Foxwoods where a Sycamore Executive ask those that had been here over ten years to raise their hands. Now are they trying to shift the age group lower? possibly, but I saw the list of people recently released and the ages and tenures were across the board from 6 months to 10+ years.
I know saying “watch” and pointing to us before paid higher is fun, but I specifically heard they were looking mainly at people there over 10 years. Can anyone confirm outside of just saying “watch”.
No fabrication on the 10 plus years. Watch. When the numbers are called, they will be long standing employees that make better coin.
Anyone hear about account managers?
Any word if accounting or finance is effected? They’ve been hit hard in the past? I’ve also heard 40+ people in both merchandising and supply chain. Anyone else hear numbers?
Fabrication
Any truth to the rumor people with 10+ years are being targeted or is that just another fabrication?
Are we talking about the stores? Or Staples Advantage? What states?
