This is what companies that are going out of business tell their employees in order to keep enough people around to help liquidate/pack up when it's time to shut down.
Curious to know if employee paychecks are still arriving on time and clearing.
- toast0 7y agoWhatever is happening at Fry's, it's not the normal retail circling the drain. Toys R Us had more inventory on shelves a week into their final clearance sales than Fry's in Fountain Valley did a couple days before Christmas. If it were trying to make things work, they should be consolidating stores to reduce operating costs. But they're just in some sort of holding pattern. I saw a rumor on a Fry's employee forum that one of the brothers Fry was going through a personal bankruptcy and that was disrupting the corporation's credit, which seems plausible, but hasn't been reported anywhere legitimate, so I dunno.
