Is there another store closing? In Chicago? Any more rumors of other locations or flipping over WFM to Amazon Fresh? That has to be coming soon.

Is cashing out of PTO possible? How about cash for family emergency situations? Please let me know.

Is anyone going to buy any? It seems like ever since we were bought by Amazon, supplements at wfm have gotten more expensive while Amazon is a bit cheaper.

How long you think till this position is gone? With the SSS being the store point person and the STSS just works tickets assigned to them. I say within two years they are gone.

I know it isn’t just Amazon/Whole Foods, but it affects all customer service jobs. For those of you that have been around for more than a couple of years, (meaning 10 years or more) how bad is it getting at your store? Do you just FEEL how much... —  read more 

My TL told me I am the point person for tech support now at my store? We haven't even had our monthly call because it keeps getting postponed.

For years John you let mid mngemnt at Whole Foods toil under heavy stress…always under threat of demotion or termination…team leaders working off the clock and suffering for wfm…and these very conscientious workers were often driven into the rocks... —  read more 

John Mackey said about GenZ "Its also the Kids these days. They don't seem like they want to work" Are we talking about all of the young kids at WF who seem to be the majority of the TM who created the sales and profit so you "John" could retire with... —  read more 

Culture compass is coming don't bother responding nobody cares about what you have to say. Let's make this year the lowest participation rate so global can't brag about how many people responded. Your opinion means nothing to them and your response... —  read more 

Seems all the SSI's have be reduced back down to SSS....

Who was the worst STL you worked for? The worst in terms of job performance or overall competence.

Is this unique to the SP or do all STLs work 6 hours while expecting their ASTLs and shifties to work 9+? They hired a talentless clown that has a long commute and he seems to reduce his drive time from his shifts.

Who else is suspicious of the new my schedule app? I know that this is how Amazon shoppers were being scheduled allowing them to pick/drop their own shifts. I'm nervous about it because that is also how Amazon got rid of a lot of the shoppers they... —  read more 

It is funny the John Mackey tour has already started. He will be visiting my store next week and the STL is freaking out. There are 4 ASTL's at this location and do you think one of them could lift a finger to help prepare for this visit. NOT! ... —  read more 

How many years have you been working for WHM? Do you still enjoy working here?

Hi All, is this true? Also, if there are closing it are they offering relo options to workers?

What ASTL got the boot or promotion at Lamar?

What will be left of Whole Foods Market when John Mackey leaves in September? From where I am standing not a thing. This man built a great company and then stood there and did nothing while "the Board and shareholders" bullied him into stepping... —  read more 

I used to. Now I try to work the bare minimum, not get exhausted and generally put more energy into finding a new job.

What's this I hear about a COVID outbreak at Tribal?

Will we see an improvement over the sub par showing of the last several years?

What is the point of the STSS now if they have no access to log into anything unless they are on a VTeam? Just give the SSS the ticket and have then touch things.. Heard thats coming back anyways.

I too have a plan to leave WFM, but until I find a better offer, I'm still trying to do my job to the best of my ability. Then I look around and see some people who no longer work even the bare minimum. They would supposedly like things to be... —  read more 

I feel very miserable about the fact that I am still here and very worried because I can't find a new job and the atmosphere in the store is worse than ever. It used to be nice to work here but now I just wonder how much longer before we hit the... —  read more 

I'm going to assume that Amazon has cleaned house with the latest round of closings and that the rest of us are safe for at least a year or two?

From what I can see it's the locations in Chicago, Illinois; Montgomery, Alabama; Mobile, Alabama; Tarzana, California; and Brookline, Massachusetts. If there are any that are missing from this list, please add them. There should be at least one... —  read more 

how bad is the amount of customer shoplifting at your store??? they have all these new cameras,protocols,and team huddles about theft and yet thousands of dollars are walking out the front door pretty consistently....and the self checkout seems to be... —  read more 

I plan to give notice by the end of the month. I'm becoming a little nostalgic. Who on this forum remembers WF's golden years?

I feel horrible when I do work for two people while others who have somehow managed to become favorites just stand there, talk and do almost nothing. In addition I am terribly underpaid for the amount of work I do. Sometimes I ignore it and... —  read more 

I have been following this forum for a long time and I wouldn't want to offend anyone, but how come everyone thinks they are hard workers? I know the person who does a really sloppy job, but she also says that she is a hard worker. There seems to... —  read more 

I've passed my 1 year mark. When am I supposed to have it? What happens if my tl doesn't doesn't give me one?

I remember when our schedules were realistic and we would get appropriate time off. I remember when I could turn to the STL for help and I would get it. I remember when we used to hire people who had skills that made them an asset to the store. WFM... —  read more 

Why can't it be one of the many terrible ones in the region?

I feel sorry when I see some people think that it's enough to just work hard and that someone will notice and value it. No they won't! No one will notice it if you don't make sure they notice it. WFM is full of employees who work little but make... —  read more

Can anyone shed light on the truth behind the installation of all the cameras in the stores? All the money spent on them cannot just be to monitor theft. Now we're being watched and our conversations being monitored too??? What about our rights?

It seems now that WFM has many of us multi tasking, doing multiple jobs and then they have the nerve to walk up to me and say I had overtime. When technically they should be paying for 2 different positions, but are having trouble hiring. What a F... —  read more
