Wish I had been laid off much earlier from this company. If it weren’t for the layoffs, I’d probably be working here for a long time in the future and I wouldn’t think I could do better. Very quickly I found a job that is not only better paid, but... —  read more

Fry's is done. I shouldve changed jobs years ago

Wondering if anyone else received word but it sounds like Fry's is reaching out to tell employees they are shutting down.

Fry's Electronics has survived worse. Mark my words, we'll be back. Maybe not bigger and better than ever, but we'll be back. It's like some people here are hoping to see the company fail. What do you get out of that? You should be cheering us on... —  read more

Well. Stores are empty. Didnt have rca cables. And now need a printer usb cable. Out of stock online and in store. Yeah. Its toast. Its a shame. Used to be an event going there. Now its just depressing

Was just there today. 75% empty shelves. I am just a customer, but I can tell by what I see that Frys is in trouble.

Consignment model? No, they are closing stores...Palo Alto, Diluty, Anaheim, Woodland Hills.

Has the model changed? Are you on a Consignment Model now like Staples?

Sears or Fry's? I was certain Sears will be long gone by now but somehow it's still standing and shows no signs of giving up any time soon - even if there is only one store left in the end. Meanwhile, Fry's has started dropping stores one by... —  read more
