Does anybody know who is entitled to receive severance at Kroger? I'm assuming it's all full timers, but I'd like to be sure. Toys R Us employees also assumed they'd be getting severances and they got screwed in the end. Also, what is the current...

With Southside Savannah Kroger closing, I was wondering if anybody knew if there is a list of all the Kroger stores that have closed so far somewhere? We seem to be hit less than other chains, but one by one, the number seems to be raising. Also...

Kroger also laid off all 8 of the night-shift pharmacists in the Cincinnati/Dayton Market. Its part of their "Right-sizing" campaign. I don't think you create a campaign for only 8 people...
I’ve been with Kroger for many years as a ARM (Associate Resource Manager) for the Nashville Division. I have found out that the Nashville Division HR changed our PED’s to “Low Performance”, even though we received higher marks from our Unit Manager...

I am surprised there is no coverage about this (Kroger Downsizing Pharmacy) - Even the media is not covering it - I see other companies write about cuts extensively yet nothing here on Kroger Pharmacy. We'll see how things develop, I think over time...
