It's been said throughout this blog that the company needs change.

Anonymous 12/17/2008: "But when January comes they'll forget all about how many hours we worked and will think nothing of cutting all of our hours. Apparently we all need the money and we still need it in January..."

Anonymous 12/10/2008: "The ONLY thing your GM is interested in is keeping his job with the salary and bonus. He knows in todays market, new jobs are tough to find."

With all these new appointments and hires, where's the change for the real people who run the company? We'll have a monthly wrap up of the comments next week...until then, Happy Holidays!

    Be careful what you wish for. This company has had plenty of change since i have been an employee. If you ask me, it's pretty good right now.

    In a struggling economy, we have stability, no debt, and peanut butter & jelly sandwiches in the breakroom. What more can you ask for?

  2. As a former BJ'S Manager who has been quoted by the blog operators a couple of times, change will NOT occur until those from the IVORY TOWER in Massachusetts realize it is all the " little people " who
    keep the company operating. As long as the stock prices do well, and the "Massachusetts Crew " keeps on making insane salaries and bonus', nothing will change. I have
    offered to talk with the "Massachusetts Crew", and inform them about how things run, HOWEVER, it falls on dead ears.....

  3. So PB&J in the break room makes up for all the other nonsense? How easily some are distracted.

  6. Question...

    Why does corporate ask for cost saving suggestions, only to ignore them even though numbers for saving money were quoted chain wide to a regional manager?
    My aunt works at BJ's and suggested something to do with un-necessary code signs(?) that have to be changed.

    Why do you ignore cost saving suggestions and yet keep bragging about all the money you are making?

    Couldn't you be hiring extra help with these savings in paper cost? Just a suggestion if you are looking to make some changes to save money.

    P.S... I'm saying something because my aunt is afraid of ramifications from management if they posted it. Sad, itn't it?
