Don't worry about your jobs yet. Manager told us that we won't see store level affected until about 2024 IF the merge even goes through.
Just like any other merge some stores will be sold off to prevent a monopoly. Fellow coworkers you may want to have a plan b just in case. The last time slaveway merged they sold off million dollar grossing stores over dinky c class stores. Everyone could be affected by this. Don't assume your location is safe.
Well, I recall our managers saying at the time that the Albertson's merger was a done deal...Apparently, though, there are a few senators who aren't having any of that BS...
Congress could still block the deal (antitrust, monopoly issues), so we'll have to see what happens...It could work IF the merger is done right, but the kinks still need to be ironed out...
