I am interested in the overall number of employees. Also, please share if you know how many people work at Union?

Every day we have several customers come up to us and ask if we are closing. No one has addressed this issue and how to handle the answer that is the correct answer to the customers. We just say no and we are going through a huge renovation and... —  read more

Be aware the ball is rolling down hill for the asm position. The word is by March 1, no severance, I wish all of you that are left good luck.

So what stores are being told they will have a renovation this upcoming fiscal year? Trying to make a running list to see how many will get it Vs not. Ie the have and the have nots!

So where's this big announcement?

The stores are very quiet. not too many customers (except returns). Not too many associates lurking about the floors. What's up with the columns, They are bare, I would never let them look like that, it shows no product... At least split the column... —  read more 

Looks like internal announcements were made today. Is your store getting the axe?

Not sure how anyone can put a positive spin on these numbers.

Oh Boy! It seems I that my predictions are starting to come to true. selling off property, more stores closing, layoffs. When to start worrying is when the company falls under 1000 stores. Then the next adjustments start. Moving managers around... —  read more 

Just heard that CIO was let go as well. It was not part of the news release.

The 25% off this weekend so far has brought a lot of foot traffic into the stores. Is this just another way to reduce inventory to sell out?

Or is it just me?

They've ruined so many lives and nearly destroyed this company and now I'm supposed to feel sorry for them? Not happening! This was the best move that could have been done to start affecting some actual change here. I think we might be on the... —  read more 

Finally doing something right, or at least the right direction. They let go (but did not eliminate the position) of 6 key people for corporate, whom are either very overpaid, or too old fashioned for the “new” bed bath and beyond. It’s very... —  read more 

I got a job offer starting in January, but I'm reluctant to just leave the company I've spent more than a decade with, especially when things seem to be looking up at least a little bit. Still, I'm scared that if I decide to stay, I might regret that... —  read more

I for one think that this new CEO in not going to be able to save the titanic. if you read about Target, he may have fixed the look, merchandise and traffic in the stores but he was part of the payroll cuts on freight put away and back room... —  read more 

So if the beloved new leader should hold a town hall or come to your store for a visit, here’s the question that needs to be asked: will there be any more layoffs? If the answer is: I don’t know; that’s your big clue to get out of BBBY.

Bed Bath & Beyond Employees, you need to approach the new CEO, Mark Tritton, with your problems! The Associate Handbook (The Law of the Company) states: “We encourage you to take advantage of our OPEN DOOR POLICY by letting your Manager, or any... —  read more

Anyone else been told to give only positive responses at their morning huddle?

The morale is so shattered In our stores. The speculation of ASMs being let go only adds to the 4th quarter stress. Freight flow, I’d say is crazy In most stores due to the reduction of hours. The front End is very scattered and we constantly call... —  read more 

Wouldn’t it be neat to have a legitimate suggestion box on Mysource that allowed us to submit requests on what could help our store. We work it daily, why not listen to us, DMs dont!!

Let's hear it from the people on the front lines - what can the new CEO do to make us a success once again? What are the most immediate issues he needs to deal with?

The customers have already left our store. Where is the advertising? Where are the offers, the reasons to bring them back in to the stores? Where are the strategies? Is a membership and a credit card really all the ideas we have? Then we’re dead. A... —  read more 

How many times a day do you get "Is this store closing?" "Are you losing your job?" So annoying! I wish someone would just publish to the media which stores are actually closing !

Just for a little bit? Maybe a week? Is that really too much? People, what's happening here is a good thing. For once there is light at the end of the tunnel. Yes, it's possible nothing will change, but you know what? At this moment, and looking... —  read more
