Change

Is it just me or is Jeremy changing everything Randy did? It seems we're heading in the right direction

More hours cut

Hours are significantly cut for April at the store I work at…..what are other stores like?

Security got the Axe

Everyone but 8 people got canned in our department, got told around 180 people were laid off across hyvee land.

Stores doing good?

Anybody hearing how we're doing? Our store is just OK. A lot of theft I think from customers. I hope we don't cut labor hours after the first of the year like they want. Or close more stores

End of fiscal year

Anyone know how we did as a company for 4th qtr. and fiscal year end of 2024? Did we make enough money to keep the Indy driver and the Chiefs employed?

I'm just grateful to have a job and decent paycheck. I think things are going to get rough for everyone (economically). I'm just keeping my mouth shut, head down working all I can and squirreling money away. I need a paycheck, they need workers, I... — read more

Edeker Retirement Party

How about those 16 stores closing? Still waiting on those. Commentor " Randall Triple Chin" knows it all!!!!!

Accounting managers

Hyvee just silently took away the jobs of the accounting managers. They put all the work load of invoices and gave their hours to scanning. Scanning has enough to do. How low of hyvee. These people have been dedicated and worked all holidays and... — read more

2019 all over

Does anyone remember in 2019 right before Covid how bad our business was? It appears to me it's just like that now, if not worse. We have a BAD business model. Too many cooks in the kitchen.

New Accounting program?

Has anybody heard about the new accounting program coming to the retail stores and supposedly the stores won’t need a full time accounting person anymore…any Truth to this??

401k plan at HyVee is outdated.

I’ve always thought HyVee had a good 401k plan. News flash we don’t. HyVee retirement plan is under matched by HyVee. We need to demand a change for our 401k retirement. HyVee should at least match dollar for dollar up to 5%. That is about the... — read more

Debt load

Anyone know HyVee's debt load? That's how you'll be able to tell if they are moving South. Gotta think it's pretty high, considering they have to pay their share holders a 15% annual return.

"Best place to work in India"

Remember when Randy said he wanted to make Hy-Vee "The best place to work in America"? Then why is every IT position that opens up now being filled by positions in India? Someone at HST quits or retires, and leadership pushes to backfill in India... — read more
