At a meeting at corporate, Laura said that we "have more cubicles than parking spaces"......

Is Giant Eagle losing money? If yes, how come? How is this even possible, such a big chain with a ton of management from top schools.

After over 20 years of service to Giant Eagle, I am ready to move on. I’m looking into completely new opportunities and career fields and am super excited for where my life is going to take me. I’m definitely leaning towards being my own boss and... —  read more

I am guessing that will all change in a couple weeks when the next rounds of buyouts/layoffs occur. How can you be so certain more buyouts and layoffs will happen in a few weeks? Was there an announcement that I missed? Or is this just wild... —  read more 

It is happening again. It has now been confirmed, layoffs again. To be announced this upcoming Monday, 8/26/19.

We are quickly approaching the anniversary of the MASSIVE corporate layoff event where police were called, folks unknowingly shut out, peoples lives changed forever, etc. How do I know this you ask? Well, it’s simple quite frankly: 1) It happens... —  read more

Every year, we have to watch the Ethics video narrated by our CEO. Unfortunately, some members of management don't abide by these rules. Once you get in the "good old boys club" you have it made. Some of the perks you get consist of "free" PTO to go... —  read more 

I work at one of the Ohio stores and it's going downhill fast. Giant Eagle does not care about their employees at all!! They just found out a way to cut more hours by giving the cash office jobs to the coordinators and self checkout workers. They... —  read more 

Anyone know exactly when the store is closing? I heard the ELT discussing its closing but they need to find a relocation property prior to making the announcement.

What happened to this site?? It wasn’t censored in the past and now all the sudden they are erasing posts that don’t violate anyone’s privacy! I posted only first names about public figures in the company, specifically only the CEO and GM of GetGo... —  read more 

Missing a great roast. I suppose this site does not allow any personal insults. Oh well.

New year, new closings. Giant Eagle in Willoughby Hills will be no more as of February 2. Anybody knows if any more closings have been announced or if this is it? Somehow I doubt they'd stop at only one... —  read more

For the most part I actually enjoy working at Giant Eagle. We have decent benefits, flexibility, and most people I work with are some of the best folks I've met in my life. But the management's treatment of employees ruins most of that any day. There... —  read more

I understand where the old "customer is always right" adage comes from, but I think it's time we say enough is enough. No matter what the customer does, the manager'll side with them, making the rest of us look like idiots. And I mean anything... —  read more 

I'm getting really tired of being given more and more work and responsibilities for the same pay. We are sometimes doing the work of three or four people, not sure how long we can last like this! I'm not surprised people are quitting or simply not... —  read more 

GE has been doing some shady things when it comes to their financials. They will claim and post hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of credits ( money that other businesses owe them) but never receive the money. But it still goes on their balance... —  read more 

It's got the most competition so I figure it's not good. I thought it was pretty ominous when I saw that they redid their referral program and now you get $100 if someone stays on the job for 6 months, but in Columbus you get $500. They must be... —  read more

If you have 30 years of service, are you able to retire. I do not work there I just had a back and forth with my gf on this, she claims that you can and I claim that you cannot.

One thing I noticed too is that around 2012/2013, they stopped posting how much money in sales each store was making in the district too. They had revenue figures from each store on it, plus where they ranked in sales. They're probably too... —  read more 

They're also micromanaging everything too to a tee. That's bad when they even freak out about the amount of bags being used by the cashiers acting like the bags alone will bankrupt the store. The shoplifting is worth more than the box of bags they... —  read more 

I would give this company another 3-5 years before it goes belly up at least in the Northeast Ohio area. Day by day, the stores begin to look like how Tops looked like towards the end when they went bust and bankrupt. Something is wrong when you go... —  read more
