Thread regarding Whole Foods Market Inc. layoffs

Loyalty

After hearing some of these venomous statements, it hit me that this may be a genius way to find out who really should be here.

Did you know that zappo's offers their new team members a "buy out" to see which ones really want to be there?

Makes you wonder if this is a genius move!

I think you are wrong. The marketing tl position does exist. You have to reapply for the restructured position. Where are you?

Loyalty? That has to be earned. The only thing this tests is an employer's level of desperation: do I suck it up and work two or three times as hard for less pay because WFM is so gee darn awesome (and possibly go through this all over again when the next round of job cuts comes)? or do I thrust myself into the unknown and face months of possible unemployment?

Well, probably because the Marketing TL position no longer exists. That's a pretty good indication.

Marketing TLs were cut in this process (or haven't you read) many of us have been here for years and were making over $25/hr.

LOL. I wonder if you'd be willing to take one of those other jobs at half of your current rate. Doubtful.
