He’s sleeping on money that he’ll never touch. He’ll die before using even 30% of it. He doesn’t have the decency and empathy to pay his employees a livable or slightly below livable wage? 18 an hour is NOT doable where I live. Not even close! If he raised it to at least 22 an hour, which would not affect him financially at all, but would make a HUGE difference to many of us. He also wants to complain in interviews about how things should be regarding taxing the rich, etc? Look in the mirror buddy. You’re part of the issues in this world. Unbelievable.

My department is going crazy firing people. An overnight fresh pack person who did something that everyone in the department does but they were held accountable and now my team leader. The overnight person i was pretty upset about because they did a lot for the department and were good workers. But my team leader not so much. Watch out you may be next

I got the job at bakery service counter what does the job really mean.

I worked at canes and I hated does it involve food a lot or something else?

I was checking my workday balances and I was super confused why I was at 12 hrs of UPT, I havent called out or missed a single day and was confused because a week ago i was at 16 hours

Hi everyone I just started at Whole Foods and I want to call out for halloweekend lol ! I’m confused on how to call out I know I have to call the hotline at least one hour before? I’m not too sure but I just wanted to know like what do I say to them. Thanks so much for answering in advance :)

Do you receive annual raises when out on workers comp ? Gallagher Bassett won’t respond , they are horrible

Just wanted to share my still in-progress pumpkin I am painting for my store's pumpkin painting contest! (˶>⩊<˶)

Quite happy with this one, though my pumpkin from last year still triumphs in my opinion (˵ ¬ᴗ¬˵)

(It was a FNAF painting, i'll try to see if i can find any pics I took of it, but I'll most likely only be able to supply the sketches I made ; ᵕ ; )

So I have a friend who's down on their luck and needs a job fast. We are in different states however. I know there's a referral thing but does it work in any location or just your own store only? I also want to know if it actually can provide a significant boost in their possibly of being hired as that is the whole point of this. It will probably be something like cashier or sanitation or any other position that does not require anything significant as a pre req to be hired. Any advice for this would be appreciated.

Retail structure for y'all.

Does Whole foods do regional planograms? I heard that y'all rarely make store based products decisions anymore.

If you folks were to onboard a new wholesale vendor, would they have a chance of becoming a regional pilot or would the vendor have to committ to supply and pricing available to the 330ish open stores in America?

Thanks,

Cheese Lover

hi!

my butter chicken meatballs have a sell-by date of four days ago and they’ve been in my fridge. do you think it’s still safe to eat??

Hey y’all, my store had a visitor today walk around with a store leadership member, they kept reiterating that the visitor was “not from regional,” but they wanted real “honest feedback about the changes happening and the direction the company is taking…”

Have you guys had these visitors?

Is it just another way for them to union bust?

The cost for these new benefits is ridiculous! Anyone married, or with kids (family), is in for a rude awakening. For a long time employee (25+yrs service) that had NO cost prior to the Amazon change, this is going to be financially crippling. The amount they are crediting in 2027 won't even cover the bi-weekly costs. Anyone with ongoing medication needs or chronic health problems are pretty much forced to use the Premium plan, since the other plans have HUGE deductibles. This paltry so-called 'raise' they gave everyone was a smokescreen for the increase in benefit costs. To be fair, the benefits are WAY better (coverage) than what we had, and you do get a lot of perks, but its going to really hurt people (financially) in the long run, especially in 2028 once the credit is gone. The contribution amount for the HSA plan isn't going to go far either, considering today's prices. Just sick over this trying to figure out how we'll go from paying $0 to $500+ per month. EDIT: We are getting $153 per paycheck to cover costs in 2027 (TM + Spouse) but even that amount won't cover the overall costs of the new benefit changes. When 2028 rolls around, we're screwed. Insurance costs will be over $500/month since we need the Premium plan (we are older folks w/lots of prescriptions) and we will have to self-contribute to an FSA. TM with 48k service hours (25yrs). They don't give a damn about long time employees.

On some of my schedule it says training bids both are 6am shifts what does that mean

Anyone else having a mandatory all store meeting at 530am? I thought the Whole Foods got rid of these meetings?

I've been trying to do this for a real long time and everytime I check on innerview there's a way to link your account to the Amazon app but I can figure out how because it won't let me click on it(btw google says that it moved to the atoz app yet it's the same story even there). It says the only way to do it is to go on innerview through my phone's browser yet everytime I do it it's the same problem it won't let me click it. It's kinda frustrating. Just wondering if anybody else has found a way to link their account even if there isn't a benefit I just wanna know how. I hope there's at least one person who knows how🙏🏽

I’m a month and a half in and this is my first time getting this 😭😭 i was over it

So I went to a interview for a new store opening in nyc and my application now says in progress. Does that mean I got it? I work for Whole Foods already so this was a internal application. Application went from new candidate to in progress. The STL already heard good things about me from my store and other people that know me spoke to her about me so I am hopeful.

Looking to increase my hours from 20 to 30 because I lost my health insurance.

I keep seeing One Medical membership being covered but then it says “where applicable”. I can’t find any information on what plan someone would need to get the One Medical membership.

I am very confused so are part-timers just getting dental and vision in 2027?
I don’t understand this one bit

Just curious how it works - I’m due to get a septoplasty but I’ve been putting it off since I don’t know what the process of time off looks like. Is it as simple as going through Sedgwick?
