*Enterprise

Might I add gscl (dc’s) are not current priority and things may very well not be able to be operational until tomorrow. Huge impact, especially weekend before Christmas.

Basically the only departments that are able to work are mbp/pack and warehouse. Essentially we can not receive freight or send freight out. Even though warehouse is able to operate they essentially stopped due to backlog. 1 shift of tm’s was vle’d which is huge. From my understanding fdc’s...

Dc’s also having inbound and outbound issues

Ha just wait till people are them home to sell on fb marketplace or ebay

Distribution is different than hq. Distribution gets an allocation of merit roles based on headcount and forecasts each year. This allows them to year over year decrease numbers in roles. These roles have been decreasing the past couple years already

There are multiple reasons, but in this case it’s because there were too many distributions allocated to 185 stores.

Canceled labels=canceled cartons sent to a store because the store didn’t really need it

The warehouse drop (reserve cartons picked to send to ob) was 3x what the forecast was for that day. Meaning, if hq forecasted 100k cartons that day, it was 300k, which would’ve crazy.

From what I saw on Reddit, there were Apollo issues and the whs drop was 300% to forecast.

Your site is decreasing merit roles and support om’s?

I don’t think anything is “up”. There is simply a ton of pressure on all levels of management. More is being asked and there are less OMs to accomplish those asks (at least in our dc). There used to be 2 oms per department and now there is only one with more expected to be done.

Your om’s should be getting a prep packet from hr and it is their responsibility to ensure you are prepped correctly. If they are not they are doing you a disservice and their peers that are doing the interview.

I think there was a site or 2 that out cartons into reusable pods. Different process than rss but using the same pods

I’m surprised it took so long to ditch AR. Didn’t seem to save the amount of hours at stores as they thought it would. It only made the rest of the building less efficient.
