Who else got this whole worker email from a gmail account?
Did your store leadership call an emergency meeting?
What the f---. I don’t know what’s
Going on in California but they’re turning everyone inside out.
Anyone have any info on this SLACK app?
I wouldn’t recommend anyone join the Slack app. Or if you do, use a made up personal email. Don’t share anything on a company computer, don’t even talk the union email to anyone you work with.
You don't have to use your WFM email to join Whole Workers. Use your personal email account and send an email to wholeworkerswfm (at) gmail.com to request an invite. If you are worried about security open an anonymous email account somewhere to use for this.
what it doesnt tell you is that the annual fees could be 1500 to 2000 for every year. no thank you. im good.
F--- the UNION. Money hungry mofos.
PC magazine reviewed SLACK and said it was a great program but very expensive.
So far I've heard of store team leadersL telling teams that the email is false, has a virus (and if the computer is damaged your liable) and lastly if anyone joins slack there will be consequences "down the line".
I've worked union jobs and I've worked at WF. Given, a lot has changed in the last few years and WF isn't what it used to be.....but I have no interest in working union again.

Discriminating against employees because of their union activities or sympathies (Section 8(a)(3))
It is unlawful to discourage (or encourage) union activities or sympathies "by discrimination in regard to hire or tenure of employment or any term or condition of employment." For example, employers may not discharge, lay off, or discipline employees, or refuse to hire job applicants, because they are pro-union.
Since you WF team members are owned by Amazon you don’t have the luxury of saying I won’t use SLACK. You aren’t the CEO...you are a worker in the company. You don’t make individual decisions against what the company Amazon has told you to do.
And "Hiring Day" is right around the corner. There's not a lot of open positions in my store, just a lot of unhappy campers who got that email. Maybe it's just a coincidence...
Look into slack. It’s hosted on an amazon server. I wouldn’t trust it.
Not putting my Wfm email in that app
