For new folks here, there is a large "ACTIVE" button right above the first thread - you can use it to see what posts had recent replies. That's all from me. Anyhow, I hope this helps someone. Good luck all....

The people who run Kroger are so clueless that it’s absurd. They take over start changing policies and the sales drop. Instead of reacting to the failed policies they make more absurd, useless and failed policies. When these new policies... — read more 

Are ASM's who have not gotten a call safe? My mom didn't get one yet but she is still stressing over this more than usual. I'm starting to get really worried. I hope I can tell her she'll be okay.

I bet they are trying to force department managers to be co managers too. Why else would they give clerks and co managers a raise and skip department heads? They also are not allowed to step down. It's either quit, stay where you are, or move up... — read more 

Here in Cincinnati we have one store manager and two ASMs.

It's not all that bad... Some folks got beefy pay increases, something like 20% and up... The source is reliable and check it out now... I've listed the source link at the bottom of this message... The bonus pool was extra deep at The Kroger Co... — read more 

This is not Barney's Kroger anymore. Barney Kroger and Don Becker are weeping in Heaven. While Rodney is laughing at all of our misery.

What I don't understand is how they are laying off all these managers while all year long they have been putting people through the Management Training program in the Atlanta Division. Let's hire all these new ASM's who have no clue how to run a... — read more 

Is it just me, or does it seem Kroger is trying to get rid of people in a certain age group??? Shouldn't that be illegal???

If Sprouts Farmers Market is in your state they are probably hiring as they are still an expanding company.

To high pay for what they are doing, workers comp, unemployment and matching Social Security plus their pay. The american workers and the government have priced themselves right out of jobs. It is crazy money what you have to pay to have an employee... — read more 

Buckle up folks, this is far from over. I know everybody would like to have it over with as soon as possible, but that's not happening. More meetings are already scheduled for tomorrow. Chances are, this will drag out through the rest of the week... — read more 

I feel so angry right now... Two longtime friends and our best employees are gone... Why? There are actual people here who we could lose without losing anything valuable in the process, and they are still here... How does that make any sense? Who... — read more 

Cincinnati lost upwards of 20 yesterday, some with 30 years. More meeting today as well.

Any ideas on what the final number might be?

My managers are saying it's not going to happen? We are just making a new division and no one is losing jobs? Meanwhile everyone is getting emails of Kroger changing how things are run? We were supposed to have a huddle but everyone says it's just... — read more 

Was there really no better way to handle this? People receiving calls and then having to wait for hours for the meeting full well knowing that was it? I hope this was unique to my location because if it's company-wide, Kroger management is crueler... — read more

I HAD TWO POSTS TAKEN DOWN? WHY!!!!!!!!!!

My heart hurts for my husband right now. He has given his entire life since he was just out of high school to this company. He missed birthdays, holidays, soccer games, family dinners and vacations in order to give his all to his job and provide for... — read more 

I worked at Kroger for 11 years (17 months as a store Co-manager). For many years, while I worked as an office helper/ACSM on the Front End (a member of the UFCW union), I enjoyed my job at Kroger very much; I loved my store and my colleagues. ... — read more 

Layoffs are happening here in the Atlanta division. Rumors around 180+ managers will be let go. Very sad. Greed has taken over. Best wishes to everyone going through this with us. It breaks my heart to watch people we work with everyday no longer... — read more 

Anyone with any info on Atlanta Division Layoffs? I've heard managers being called for a meeting today, are they doing it in waves or all at once? Severance pay?? Any info much appreciated.

All the managers called for a meeting today, were let go. Most of us never received a call at all, up to this point. DMs say they are going to meet with all of us, yet everyone called has been laid off.

Is So Cal Ralphs being affected by these layoffs too?

After 19 years of service, I know I will be lay off tomorrow. It’s all about your relationship with your DM and his recommendation. He is given a target to reach and if you are not in his circle you will be out. How in the hell are you... — read more

I just got confirmation, Atlanta is also letting go of 28 unit managers...

So for some context I've been with the company for let's say 5 years now. Been a assistant front end pic for well over 2 years. Not to turn it into a sh– post but let's just go ahead and say I've had it. I was already topped out as a cashier so if I... — read more 

I am just curious. Full disclosure: I work for a competitor (just comparing things)....

In our modestly sized division, District 6 alone lost 6 store managers today All of our coordinators have been demoted and/or laid off… Mark my words, co-managers are next to get the axe… Asking about criteria? Well, nobody knows – big... — read more 

I guess I'm one of the ones being cut since i did get a call today scheduling my meeting with my DM tomorrow. If this is true, hang in there to the "survivors"!! Keep up the good work

Our District Team got much thinner today – at this point we just have one DM and three coordinators – Fresh, Center Store, Customer and Associate Relations…. Also, assistant manager roles will not change through holidays… No change there… There will... — read more
