Several of my coworkers are not worried over losing their jobs because a) they've been here forever and b) BBB is too big to fail so we'll be around for a long time to come. I'm honestly not sure how people can lul themselves into a false sense of... — read more
Topics regarding layoffs at Bed Bath & Beyond
SICK OF OPS MANAGERS !!!
So unfair to receivers always pointing out what you are doing wrong when the majority of the part-timers are lazy and are doing nothing . The majority of them stay on their cell phones all day they come to work looking like they just rolled out of... — read more
Getting rid of remaining ASM’s and OPS?
“The company is planning great improvements. Changes that will ease the work load.” “We need to hire more part timers to learn the merchandising and operations tasks to take pressure off.” So how long before those changes eliminate the... — read more
I hate my job
I hate this company, I hate my manager who is a backstabbing, credit-stealing a–, I hate having to deal with customers who couldn't care less about our safety in the middle of a pandemic...but most of all I hate that I'm stuck here because nobody... — read more
Store closures
Those involved in recent closures l have you received separation paperwork or any correspondence regarding 401k?
Bare.....
Im embarressed at how empty the store is right now. We are doing our best to make the most of the product we have but I can see why customers think we are going out if business.....rugs, towels, sheets wiped out.......
Going into the New Year
What do we have to look forward to everyone? 1) Irate customers 2) overworked/underpaid 3) horrible work environment 4) more store closures 5) bare shelves I could go on but I’m sure you get the point. Will things change? Probably not! But as some... — read more
Things are getting worse and worse
I never thought I’d say this, but BBB is beginning to resemble Sears and Kmart. Those companies are hanging on at the end of the rope and I’m wondering if it’s just a matter of time until we are in the exact same predicament. At the rate we’re going... — read more
401k
Wow 401k was no deducted from the last paychecks. Coincidentally last of 2020. Tell me that wasnt planned. Anything to save a $
Q3 NOT SURPRISED
I walked a couple stores for sh–s and giggles leading into the holiday season and a couple days after Christmas and I must say I’m not surprised by these numbers! No product for curbside or in store sale is an instant lost customer to Amazon in... — read more
Flagship store
Recently found out that the store manager and the ops manager quit. Something must be going on for both to leave at the same time. Went into the store, just bare shelves, thinned products stretched out. Waiting for the next round of full timers to be... — read more
Word of the year
Im about to PIVOT out the door.......talk about no connection between Corp. And Field. Very disheartening.
Keep getting asked
Wow! Our store is EMPTY!! I keep getting asked from customers if we are closing! One customer I had said she was a manager at Linens n things and the way we look was how they looked before they were informed they were going out of business. Any... — read more

Priority - make BBB look better and sell it?
It’s also a shame that while they were furloughing and laying off employees at the beginning and middle of covid - they decided to spend money to rebrand, created new signage and update the interior of stores - some of these stores that they are now... — read more
Full time to part time
Is it true within the next few weeks they will be asking full timers to go part time? Has this actually happened to anyone recently?
Fired after COVID?
I don’t know if I’m more afraid of catching the virus or losing my job after I recover from it and come back to work. Were there any cases in your stores where someone was fired without any rational reason after catching an illness? I have to admit... — read more
Could the online business have saved us?
I probably shouldn’t care about it, however, I can’t believe all the bad business moves they pulled. Correct me if I’m wrong, but BBB seemed to have lost its compass when it came to online business. They didn't know what they were doing at all. Why... — read more
Covid-19 employees
What are the laws on COVID-19 employees?? Employees testing and continued to work till their test results come in then call in sick stating they tested positive. Are we supposed to take protocols and clean and how?? Getting the feeling that... — read more

District Positions
I've been told that BBB is hiring some district positions, and what I mean. They are not bringing back the terminated people. They hired new DM'S??? Why not bring back the ones who lost their jobs ?? They must have been getting paid $$$$ Any one... — read more
Did I read this right?
Did the company use some of the monies from the sale to increase the buyback purchases by $300M? If I read that correctly, then I'm p-ss-d. The cash used could have been put to much better use. Although I'm not sure why am I surprised, as always it’s... — read more
Merry Christmas:)

BOPIS and Curbside
Good idea....but its driving us crazy! Not fast enough, quick get it out to the parking spot..... BEEP....BEEP.....BEEP Makes us feel like "servents", dealing with it. Customers mad no employees in store. Just needed to vent.
BUY BUY BBBY
I left this train wreck a while ago. It not hard to see where this company is headed. There are better retailers that appreciate their associates and managers. Have faith in yourself. Best decision I ever made. I didnt realize how bad bbby was until... — read more
What's up people????

ASM
ASMs have to be next for the next round of layoffs! Mine is incredibly rude and degrading to employees...he needs to go!!

World Market Sold.
Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. Today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its remaining non-core banner Cost Plus World Market (CPWM) to Kingswood Capital Management, a Los Angeles-based private equity
ASM's
I hear BBB will not be moving forward with the hours we work. By that I mean the 50 hour ASM will not be reduced to 45 next month.
This is crazy
My manager pulled me into the office and gave me a lecture about having to go “above and beyond” in my duties. It appears he’s not satisfied with me multitasking while on a register, assisting customers on the floor, filling out BOPIS and whatever... — read more

Holding onto the end of the rope
I see more store closures are happening. I hope those that are affected either find some other employment ASAP or are offered some type of recompense if they decide to stay to the bitter end. Either way I wish all of you luck in the future. And for... — read more
This is the sad reality
The reality is that this company does not appreciate it's associates at all. They are taken for granted and not treated well. There is no support or help left and everyone is stressed and exhausted. The reward for being loyal and hard working is... — read more
Reviews
If you go on the BBB website, they removed the review option . Reading the horrible reviews made them remove it. So now you can’t write or read any reviews.
And now a word from our customers
