Lowes Announe 2400 full time job lay offs

shift resources from back-of-the-store activities to customer-facing ones, and enhance our efficiency and productivity

Corporations think we are stupid.

This shyt makes no sense.

How does shifting more of your staff and resources to the front for a big box store improve efficiency or productivity? We are not talking a supermarket here.

Half the time I go to these big box bulk stores there is not enough people operating the forklifts only one nikka is certified and he's taking a shyt for 3 hours so they can't get the box of cherrios down for my aunt

There are plenty of cash registers open in these big box stores they have much more than your regular supermarket or local corner grocery store. So why are they talking about putting more people in the front?

You mean as in those $4/hr greeters?

So basically they are shifting towards the lower paying jobs to cut costs. We all know the back of the store jobs pay more and are more likely to be union and employ males due to the physical labor and potential hazards involved.

I'm getting real tired of this agenda and I guess it's gonna be the same old song and dance under Trump.

Isn't Macy's pretty much shutting down too and moving to online only? Smh

Folks ain't visiting stores like they used to unless it's to shoplifting.

Pretty much. This sucks for young people as there wont be any room to at least get experience via retail then move into corporate, but some of these companies where you had people in the same role for 20 yrs the writing had been on the wall and they choose not to adapt

layoffs happen all the time, Walmart announced that they are expanding this year with over 100 new stores and thousands of added employees. A bunch of other companies are expanding this year as well.

Soon the only jobs available are definitely going to be warehouse, logistics, and production. I notice how they're increasing the pay for hired employees at alot of these places. They're still utilizing a shytload of desperate temps to work like slaves too however.

Groceries and half naked honeys around midnight is walmart's saving grace.

Obamas president rn. He said the same

I don't think so they closed a hundred stores and laid off thousands just last year

Trump is directly responsible for all these jobs that are being lost. We need to impeach him immediately, he's a traitor and unpatriotic.

Many were lost too

Of course no threads on here when that happens tho

I'm surprised that Lowe's even has 2400 employees. Every time I go into Lowe's there's 2 cashiers and like 3 or 4 employees walking around looking fake busy.

Amazon (online shopping) killed the brick and mortar store.

Oh well. Get that education up and stop relying on retail jobs.

 

[Ms. Elaine]

Lowes is like target. Home Depot is like wal mart

Don't. People actually shop at Target.

People with MA's in English from Trump U. are working at Target though
