Just got 4 more trailers (with liftgates) and 4 more tractors in. Major expansion of our lot set to break ground soon for more room to park new tractors/trailers. Just hired 8 more drivers. Should I hit send now? Is it game over?
Competitive advantage
Since Dirk mentioned that DSD gives us a competitive advantage, and it does, does that mean when DSD ends we should dump our stock! Since we will lose any advantage DSD gave us, is it safe to assume our stock will crash? Share price will take a nose... — read more
HUGE age discrimination at Mondelez.....
This company could be a great place to work but it’s only a great place to work if you’re 35 or younger.… At first the company said they wouldn’t promote people because of relocation, yet the younger employees weren’t required to move?. Positions... — read more
Think about it!
When Keebler announced going Warehouse, our company came out in full support of DSD. This time, when Nestle announced, it's been pretty quiet. I'm placing bets on a full exit happening in 2020! Game over.
Frito lay started CAO in Walmart
Walmart told them that they are going to merchandise their products soon. Looks like the merchandisers will be eliminated 1st at Frito. I was told that the reps will remain delivering but they were told the Walmart will be taking over merchandising... — read more
Slack off as much as possible
Hahahahaha....do as little as possible people from here on out. The company will not even offer as a decent servance package as they will layoff people in waves. This is pretty obvious in the fact that our product is being ordered through Kroger and... — read more
Stock
Big day at the stock market for Mondelez, it’s due North American growth. Just saying.
Read the posts in Nestle layoffs.....
Wow, eerily familiar! Read flags for five years; shuttles from warehouses the last couple years, red flags galore! They post how much they wished they paid attention to what’s now, obvious red flags! Not a single employee at Mondelez can pretend they... — read more
Need to be aware of what’s coming or going
Some people just chose to live in the moment only. Those people will regret it! Need to be aware of what’s coming or going. Precisely why companies forecast etc.. People seem to think that backside they are working today their jobs are safe. Yep... — read more
You'll have to wait for proof, but writing is on the wall
I’ve been with consumer goods companies in sales for 32 years. I’ve been with Mondelez now for just about 20. Five years ago I was told DSD for retailers would end. Retailers wanted to take back control and the reality is, they really only don’t have... — read more
Nestle going Warehouse
Ok prognosticators, is it “Game Over” ? should I “Hit Send” ? You’ve been telling us to do that for nearly 3 years now. Is now the time? You guys are hysterical.
I’ve never seen a manager fired
I’ve never seen a manager fired. With that said, I’ve never seen a pt time merchandiser fires either. We would much rather keep a lazy merchandiser than to do additional paperwork, meet up with them to get their materials back, and move people around... — read more
OK
So the DSD haters keep hanging on here talking bad about nabisco. So you guys are waiting for DSD to end, just to say I told you so? Just to say see, I told you it was happening? Nabisco cheerleader on here s---s! Dinosaur! Warehouse is better! Just... — read more
Keebler

Making adjustments way too late

Mondelez and retailers are concerned with their bottom line, not ours!
All the “we are committed to DSD, DSD is a powerful tool” etc., are all comments made to mislead employees. Both statements are indeed true but irrelevant because both apply to Mondelez and retailers are concerned with their bottoms line, not ours!... — read more
Mondelez's Poor Governance Could Ruin This Food Giant

I just want out of here
I don't care if DSD is ending or not, I don't care about anything related to Mondelez anymore, I just want out of here. The work environment has become so toxic here that I dread going to work each day. Yet, I've been here long enough that finding a... — read more
Why are we still hiring?
Do you want to work 80 a week? This company was already sued once for discrepancies in work hours. Some reps worked 50 hours while some worked 40. It’s never ceases to amaze me how stupid they are! You’d think they would have learned but no! Keebler... — read more

Anyone who tells you business as usual, probably lying to you

Kroger and WalMart EDI

Go Cups
Somebody a few months ago said March 8 would be the last time we would be delivering “Go Cups” to Walmart. Well today is April 10 and we are still delivering them. Did whoever posted that mean March 8, 2020?

Any issues with DMI reporting?
Anyone have feedback with DMI reporting? Any glitches? Do you agree with photos being recorded correctly?
It’s all just a Theory.....No real evidences just a few instances of our company changing how we go forward.
None of you have any real evidence of DSD ending just theories......that’s all it is and we will be here working business as usual.
Would management lie?
So many people are questioning why, or if, management would lie! Company paid out $13 milliion dollars to SEC for a single violation. Doesn’t include the jury award of $200,000 for age descrimination lawsuit they lost. So you really question whether... — read more
