Thread regarding Mondelez International Inc. layoffs

Nay Sayers

For those of you who are head strong that dsd is here to stay....

How’s that working out for you having to work Tates now? Oh wait, we’re not.

Have you noticed how many box trucks that delivery to smaller accounts are rented? Penske. Company no longer purchasing box trucks, only straight trailers. Hummmm, are we not going to deliver to target anymore?

Haha! DSD is dead!!! Watch!

All upper management can rot!! It's unethical what they are doing. My advice is to hit send on your resume before it's too late. Trump economy will give you better opportunities. Don't stay for the measly severance package. No cars will be offered anyway. Layoffs will come in waves. 1/3 of the reps will be gone by April 2019. Same severance will be offered from the 2015 layoffs.

Hahahahaha, yes indeed, karma does s---! Gonna be a lot of people that will find that out the hard way. Management has no problem saying”we are committed for dsd”, all the way up to Dirk himself! Mark my work, when dsd ends (and they have been planning for the exit for years now) they will simply hide behind the “it wasn’t out choice, we were committed”. All the while they know timelines and continue to implement plans for dsd to end! Almost like watching a really bad movie, really poor actors! Don’t be so naive and give them the satisfaction they are good at lying! A fool would know better!

Makes sense! To see the amount of empty space at the west Chester depot makes no sense, until you put two and two together! I sure hope I’m one of the lucky ones that gets let go in April! This place will be u bearable with less reps!! I’ve got my fingers crossed!!

Reps will be reduced by 1/3 by April 2019. Territories will get bigger. Less reps like what happened in 2015. By 2020 DSD will end and Nabisco will go to a structure like the elves. Watch and see. That's the word on the street

Conclusion;

  1. Anything could happen

If Mondelez recused to pay the slotting fees we have some horrible leadership, but we already know that! So we would still have to maintain a warehouse and deliver, but allow CAO to order and have clerks from stores stock. That makes no sense at all! All the expense but none of the benefits! Think about it, you are being “played here”!

Why are we still hiring if DSD is going away? That I do not understand. We are also picking vacations next week for 2019. This is the longest and biggest smoke screen I've ever been associated with

The Chevy Cruze will no longer be produced starting March 2019. Just like your job.

We're too big to go warehouse. My manager at Kroger said that Nabisco refused to pay the slotting fees so we are staying in DSD he said. No layoffs folks! Nothing too worry about! Your jobs will be here for years to come. Thank you!!

There is no such thing as a sweet Chevy Cruz. It's a throw away car. What happened, the dealer run out of AMC Pacers?

For the last time...Dirk is not making this call! Dirk could be committed to whatever he wants, but if you don’t get to decide, than who cares! I’m committed to be President,

but if I’m not elected it does not matter!

Dirk is committed to his shareholders, to make Mondelez more profitable! And lastly, if someone would buy us we would have been sold a long time ago! Nobody wants us!

Maybe DSD is not going away, but there is no way Sales Reps jobs are not getting cut. I predict that routes will be getting bigger and there will be less sales reps after April 1, 2019

All I know is what I've been told. DSD is not going away I've been told by reliable sources. Dirk is committed to DSD. We are growing. Keebler is being sold, not us.

DC

Just rumors is all you got! Nabisco's committed to DSD! We're not going anywhere! Keep spreading false information.

Once money is allocated to a budget it is essentially already spent. Money to buy material or upgrade equipment will continue until the budget is consumed.

“They”, the ones who LEASE your “sweet” CHEVY CRUZ, are not calling the shots! THEY are just preparing for what is coming after those that do call the shots, pull the plug on dsd. All THEY are doing is trying to pull the wool over your eyes, so as not to distract you, from seeing what is coming. Sad thing is (and I think DC referred to some as “acting like a 3 yr old”), is that you and others (as well as DC), are just desperate or dumb enough to fall for it! “One Team”😭.

The real THEY don’t care about how much money Mondelez makes, THEY have their own shareholders and employees to appease.

When dsd is over, bet you will miss that “sweet” CHEVY CRUZ! Not me! I’ve taken steps to protect myself and my family! Playing stupid won’t help them!

It’s a leased car mo--n! Who cares, it’s no obligation to the organization. When your fine they simply turn the car back or it goes to someone who remaining! It’s not like they won’t have employees! It’s also more expensive to maintain older cars than to replace the older cars on the lease. Some people had 80,000 miles! They used to replace muck more frequently, now they only order cars a couple times a year. We cars mean absolutely nothing! It’s a Chevy Cruz, get real!

Buying companies over sea's, means nothing for us. If your DC is expanding your just going to be a regional hub. Dirk has already informed the investors and the analysts that 2019 is going to be a disappointing year for sales and revenue. Read the forecast.

Hey DC, if I want to “go find another job, I will”. Personally I enjoy just hanging around and riding it out. I’ve been here 20 years so I’ll see what kind of severance is offered and say goodbye.

Go ahead and keep smashing your numbers and busting your butt, been there and done that! I’ll just chill, take care of my accounts. Not gonna lie to them and make up excuses as to why they have to take 4 pallets of product at the end of the month like my boss does, because objectives are so far out of wack, than only to miss because shipments were “held up at the border”! Haha.

It’s not me whining, I’m content. Just sayin....

Go work somewhere else then.

Quit cryin and complaining like a 3 year old.

Find another company to work for if it’s so terrible.

The rest of us will keep smashing our objective without coming up with excuses on why we can’t hit our number!

Just shootin it straight!

The secret to survival until it ends is to stop caring! Makes things so much more palatable! Objectives mean nothing to me! Push hard and miss only due to cuts? Than clean up and have to miss again! Such a joke! Management has made it clear that they do not care so why should we? They get 40 hours of my time, not a thing more!! Can’t wait until it ends! Worst place to work, only hanging out to retire, just around the corner!
