W2

Does anyone know who will be sending out W2’s for old BBB employees? ADP no longer works for me and others who worked there and hoping there is a plan for these to be sent out as usual.

Congratulation

Those who said Bed Bath & Beyond would be gone by 2024, you won. I was one of the naive ones who honestly thought we'd pull through. When my store closed, it was not exactly a shock but it was still something I believed we'd avoid. Here's to moving... — read more

Are there any BBB stores left standing?

Severence

Do any corporate employees whom last day was July 26 know when the severance will be paid out? I thought there was an email that said end of August but I don't have a record of that anymore.

Medical Insurance

Has anyone received any paperwork stating benefits ended on 7/31. I can't get on another insurance without the paper. I called the benefits number and they say we are all still active.

Is there still anyone left at the company?

Corporate was let go, all stores are closed and emptied, and the brands and website belongs to others. Is there any one else besides a couple of real estate guys, a few to do final accounting, and the lawyers?

401k

Is everyone locked out of their 401k account. I was told that BBB told Empower not to let employees move their money into another account.

Wave 5 last day

They just announced that July 30 is the last day open to the public.

Extra paycheck

Did anyone else from a closing store receive an extra paycheck? HR called me to let me know they need me to pay it back🤣

No amount of bonus could keep me here

Why would I do them any favors and stay until the end? Not gonna happen. I wish everybody felt this way and just let them try and figure out how to close all the stores without any employees - who they mistreated so hard for years. Sadly, I know this... — read more

Bed bath and beyond

You all deserve what you get. This company has been going under for years. If you still work there you are the exact reason the company failed

Closing 115 stores by the end of the month

Does this mean they have a buyer who is interested but says that there are still too many stores. This would bring the count to 135. Could they save the 135 and turn things around. My store is packed to the ceiling with merchandise. The next few... — read more 

The chaos is fun

Losing my job is not ideal, but I'd lie if I said I was not enjoying the chaos at our store in these last days. Nothing is going the way it's supposed to and nobody seems to care all that much. I know I sure don't. All I'm doing is milking as much as... — read more
