Insurance costs going up. Shocker.
Considering this he-l hole has over 2,000 less people to insure, you would think they’d eat the 3% extra cost but god forbid the Pep Boys only received an additional 50% of their base salaries when Ellison fires them instead of 100%… and that’s... — read more

People who are left realize they are in a dying dinosaur
I've been through layoffs at this company many times before. These rounds have been by-far the most demoralizing. The vast majority of the people left don't see how they can continue with their workloads with a barebone staff. Lots of nepotism left... — read more

Why pay the best people to leave, instead of trying to keep them?
Instead of throwing money at talented employees to keep them, we just paid so many of them to leave. Instead of valuing their skills and contributions, the leadership decided to cut them in layoffs that cost a fortune. It's ridiculous when you think... — read more
Does severance start before or after the WARN period?
Does anyone know if severance is supposed to start after your last day worked or separation date? Mine started after last day worked which technically would be during WARN and that doesn’t seem right so it might be a mistake.
Paramount International
Does anyone know if International will be hit in remaining planned layoffs of December?
Don't be naive
These lawsuits will achieve absolutely nothing. This company - just like all the others that are constantly laying off employees - knows how to cover its tracks really well. The legal department is getting paid the big bucks to make sure stuff like... — read more
