Wow! what a bumpy ride these few days have been!! I would never in my past considered working for a grocery store, but fell in love with Whole Foods Greenlife Grocery in Asheville and became a cashier in 2012. Through the amazing culture there and... — read more 

These fs literally don't do shit except talk to each other and f up every other teams spoilage. F you front end, you lazy fs

That's the rumor I heard. Take it with a grain of salt though, went to lunch with some guys today, rumors are flying left and right, people are scared, that does not help when it comes to security or job security. In short all that I heard this time... — read more 

Anyone else feel like this is the first round of cuts, that each teams leadership group is next?

They let a few PREGNANT TMs go. This is ridiculous....!

So a STL in the south region told TMs yesterday that he was upset he lost half of his bonus check! Like who the f*** cares! I lost my job!

I'm hearing this is only the beginning that there is a bigger round of cuts coming right after holidays

I was an ATL in NC and moved to Southern California and was trying to find a buyer or ATL job, that's not going to happen... any advice?

Anybody in the oc stores have news on the layoffs?, we lost 3+ ppl today, my leadership won't say anything.

Can't see myself looking for another job at this point - hoping I still have a position when I come back.

Any other stores dealing with availability issues? We we're told this came down from global. Open availability for supervisors and ATLs, and pretty much open availability for full timers (with 1-2 exceptions, 1 day or night blacked off). If it can't... — read more 

Done with cuts. But more restructure in Jan. According to my ASTL

TL's smiling that smile. Keep it up, you're the new Walmart. Wait a minute, Walmart is profitable.

Having surgery next week. Job and insurance gone. Thanks so much you SOBs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I work in MI and we have not heard a thing. I feel really bad for everyone.

What positions in Dallas have been affected? What stores in the Dallas metro are being affected?

I left in 2011, I heard the news today - Sorry Guys. Do you know if MW Marketing jobs are affected?

The Scientology of natural foods.

I have set up an email address if any media members would like to learn more information directly from an employee. I am from the NorCal/Reno region. Most of the regions have been affected pretty similarly so I can speak upon just about anything... — read more 

I have been with whole foods for 5 years now and at the moment I am a FT cashier... Probably one of the higher paid cashiers at this point. Are we safe from the cuts?

Anyone know anything, yet? There are only 2 of us, in 2 metros. Do we get to keep our people? Buyers?

Not much info to go off of. Lot of rumors but lost a store artist and bulk buyer. I love this company and feel they do put their money where their mouth is. Products are of higher quality and they do take care of TM's but christ who's running this?... — read more

if I take severance how long do I still get medical benefits?

Maybe if we didn't operationally fund so many f'ing foundations and WFM wasn't John Mackey's vehicle to fulfill his philanthropic life goals We'd have jobs and decent affordable medical insurance. Charity begins at home Mr. Mackey!

So being a TL in the NA region, I've decided to start recording any conversation I have with regional or store leadership. My question is, is this legal and could this be used in legal proceddings?

I was battling over what to do after Friday's jaunt out the back doors, with a call shortly after I got home telling me I could actually work up to 8 weeks longer. I'm still not sure how long I'll stay on. I'll work until I have to decide. My team... — read more 

Down 1% right now, http://247wallst.com/retail/2015/09/28/whole-foods-fires-1500-as-stock-hits-4-year-low/

the global marketing letter mentioned that both store and regional positions would be cut, but i haven't heard anything from my region yet.

We lost our bulk buyer, floral supervisor, and one marketing team member. Overall moral is horrible. My thoughts are that WFM has attempted to grow the company to fast. Every week we hear of a new store opening. Something had to give.
