Every post shows NO REPLIES?? What's up with the "ID@......." Why is no one posting about this??? What up with that???
Motivation, anything uplifting
what's keeping you going? Other than bills to pay, the usual. Share something good and fresh. I need some help finding an inspiration at wfm right now. i never thought it would be like this.

Dumb people shopping #BlackFridayIn3Words
Endless customer complaints.
I hear them all day long. I'm done. I tell them the truth. Our corporation flat out sucks.
Holiday Table... Picking orders. How's that going for you?
So far, pretty disorganized. Customers are confused, TMs too.
$1K on 17 items at WFM

Millburn Is A Ghetto
The store leader is ignorant and loud and I have never met a more unprofessional person in my life. That store has steadily declined since she got there. She is nothing more than a loud mouthed bully that could never make it anywhere but Whole Foods... — read more
She damaged Tulsa. Now, it looks like she's screwed up Quarry.
Our ex astl in tulsa moved to quarry. She should have been fired but everyone in Tulsa thinks she used the race card to keep her with WFM. She left a path of destruction in Tulsa then went to Quarry to continue her damage. Looks like she's being... — read more
Let's keep those margins up
What we really need is more Frankie's Olive Oil ($40 for 0.7L) #WFMPRICEFAIL - I'm sure that he's related to someone on the board of directors.
we can't keep part timers anymore, everyone is quitting
We are required to only hire part time with 24/7 open availability for 4 hour shifts 5 days a week. Who on earth would ever accept that? Gas stations offer better hours.
San Antonio Quarry closing?
i find this hard to believe. The location sucks, and i heard it was going to be remodeled & updated. Anyone know the truth? The Vineyard store has incompetent leadership, but keeps hobbling on, for now, somehow, despite the rampant theft.
Watch all the STLs stress
Its fun watching sales dip and leadership stress. If it makes anyone feel better, they are just as miserable as the tms. Doesnt mean you should have sympathy for them. Remember: they are jokers with egos that consider themselves good buisness men... — read more
North Atlantic raising hundreds of prices before thanksgiving.
We are raising the prices on hundreds and hundreds of items the week before thanksgiving. So I guess these are the "price investments" that were made at the expense of hundreds of team member jobs?! Are any other regions doing this?
Florida turns the heat on STLS
Two seasoned store team leaders fired in a space of 3 weeks. Guess, they will spend Thanksgiving this year with their real families. Why not just eliminate some very useless regional positions if the game is about cost savings?
Whole Foods Market is using pirated software; anyone else notice that?
I find it interesting that a company that is so concerned with theft, both from employees and customers, is using pirated software. The only reason I think it's pirated is the lack of unique logins for two programs that I am aware of: Filemaker Pro... — read more

Welcome to reality.
Success outside of WFM?
I am curious about those who have left WFM and gotten other jobs? What kind of jobs did you get? Is the pay better or worse? How did your time, experience and skill set developed at WFM help or hurt you in your job search?
So Sick
I'm so sick of the Whole foods radio "yum" woman. She makes me want to rip me ears off.
Am is safe?
Is i safe to be working whole foods? I poor cannot work jobless. Hi thank you
The job market is lousy.
I feel stuck and need a change, but having a bachelor's and supervisory experience doesn't seem to mean anything. You need master degrees, certifications or experience. How can you ever get experience, when entry level spots don't pay a liveable... — read more
Can anyone confirm that they're getting rid of the floral dept?
Sw region here. I've heard that other stores in other regions don't have a real floral dept with trained florists, they just have one small display of flowers that someone in produce sets up (similar to what you'd see at a Walmart). Wfm keeps doing... — read more
A guy in my store was fired because a girl from a different department reported a rumor to store leadership that he raped someone.
Not saying that he couldn't have done it, but there are two sides to every story. I can't believe all it takes now is a rumor to get someone fired; what happened to guilty before proven innocent? If there was proof, then they should have reported it... — read more
I still see prices going up. When do we get competitive??
Potted orchids from 19.99$ up to 25$...re-usable bags from .99cents to 1.39$??? 2 for 5$ prepared foods prepack now 2 for 6$??? Substantial jumps...where is our "value oriented change"...??
Payroll Benefits Specialist (PBS) Consolidation
Is it true that they may be further consolidating PBS positions?
Any news from the virtual town hall? Or whatever they call it?
I saw on the computer today that this was scheduled to happen on Thursday the 12th. Did it take place and were any questions answered? There were plenty of great questions posted in the comments. Any info appreciated
Please, employees take a stand and ORGANIZE!
Have been with WFM for 10 years plus and was not laid off. Still dealing with the fallout and labor cuts. Many of my friends were let go and the company will never be the same. That said, half of those offered severance were overjoyed, a quarter were... — read more
customer
I was curious and concerned ( as I have friends in other states who work for the co. ) I overheard about it. Just googled wholefoods market lay-offs...popped right up. PS- been laid-off four times in my life, each time I've gotten a better job. Hang... — read more
How did you find this site - Please Post
Please share info on how you found this site. Just curios, we need to have more customers see this. Also, we should have more workers here exchanging info and ideas. I was searching for WFM job cuts on yahoo and this came up first. Than I got hooked.
Will there be any more lay-offs coming?
I' ve been reading about these lay-offs. So sorry to hear all of this, as I am a long time customer, and happened to stumble across this site. I have friends out of state who I believe still wok there. Is the company planning on doing any more rounds... — read more
Question and needing info: If you were offered a position, took it, but now dreading the decision, can you opt out and ask for severance?
Like many fellow team members. I was offered a severance packaged, but I stayed and took a position for more money. Now I am dreading that decision and wondering if I can change my mind and approach my TMSL/STL about taking my severance package and... — read more
I'm still here, but should have taken severance. How about you?
I'm still with the company. I went through a ridiculous interview process and now technically I have a new job. This new job is awful. I have triple the work with basically no help. They made marketing positions salaried so in essence we are on call... — read more
Why do Ken Meyer and David Lannon still have a job?
Ken and David were hired as global Vice Presidents at 838k a year both plus bonuses, yet the company is doing so much worse even with two people in new positions. Why doesn't Walter Robb get rid of them?
