Home Office is moving to a 3 tiered eval rating...above/meets/below....I would expect this to indicate layoffs right around the corner.

The old rank and yank. I remember it well.
The goal here is to make it easier to reduce FTE at HO locations and bring in more offshore and third party. Walmart can run the business with less overhead (HR / Benefit / Housing costs) by shifting work to India and renegotiating contract and outsourcing costs with current subcontractors. It’s already been happening, this is just the next phase to start to identify those who will eventually get the axe next year. In the long run, we’ll see less real badged associates. From a overhead perspective, the save justifies the actions.
Agreed. Churn and burn. They've been doing it for years in other areas. The idea is to get rid of older and higher paid associates and replace them with cheaper labor. Hope they get rid of most of middle management. They sold their @$$ to the devil and now he owns it.
We shall see if it's a "biggie" or not.
Same system we had up til about 7 yrs ago No biggie
