How many branches have actually shut their doors?
What happened?
Looks like something is coming tomorrow. I haven't heard anything about layoffs today, did something happen or not? Should we worry about the rest of the week?
Growth
Nothing makes me happier knowing that Leo never actually hit $2 billion. another thing that makes me happy is remembering the national sales meeting with that stupid growth chart and then saying “we have never been down YOU, besides 93 because of a... — read more

Early signs that a person might be laid off
At one time I was convinced that I would be cut because the manager behavior was very unusual, but I wasn't. Now it's happening again. I'm not panicking too much because I've been actively applying to other companies for some time now, but I'm... — read more
What about layoffs?
I don't care about lawsuits or whatever else, I'd just like to know if there'll be any more layoffs this month or the next.
WHOEVER IS STILL WORKING THERE - GET OUT
Things wont get better. Heard lawsuits will get them. What pieces of garbage.
Mason is stuck in the 90s
I've been at a few companies since Mason and all were miles ahead in regards to sales strategies and technology. Using zoom phone and conducting virtual presentations with zoom, using slack, salesforce, and gong. mason's stuck in the 90's - maybe... — read more
hearing of new lawsuit possible
did wb tax any of your “ vehicle allowance “? It may have been inappropriately taxed depending on your state . How this might have been beneficial to mason i don’t know. Anyone understand the tax law? Book em , Danno!!
ANYONE KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THE LAWSUIT?
Wondering how long they're going to draw this out. Anyone hear anything?
WILL WB START LOSING THE PEOPLE THAT ARE THERE?
haven't been there in more than a year but have to imagine sales people will start leaving. who's going to be left? Florida inside sales?
Let's Make this POSITIVE!!!!
What's everyone doing POST WB ? Where are you working? Are you happier? How's your boss? Would you ever go back to WB?
back to school sales?
I am essendant and school orders dont seem especially robust so far this year. I recall being swamped starting in late june in years passed. Are you seeing the same at mason?

Is WB Mason a horrible employer?
I have an offer but I've been hearing stuff that's making me reconsider joining.
Old commissions
I heard WB Mason is sending out past commissions again this week. Ex sales reps are getting checks for thousands of dollars for 2019 and 2020. This is wrong so wrong. Why didn't sales get payed in full back in 2019 and 2020? TIME FOR LAWYERING UP... — read more

Any new news? they should give us an update
More & More Sales reps leaving
Without replacing outside sales reps where will WB be In 2-3 years. Looks like it’ll be a Staples.
Are you loyal to WBM?
If yes, why? I think the company does not deserve our loyalty, but that's the case with all major American corporations. The trust between the company and the worker is gone. Now it's all about $$$ and nobody is investing long term any more.
