Kering Brand Layoff

I recently learned about a massive layoff planned for the new year, affecting both corporate and store-level roles at the brand I’ve dedicated so many years of my life to. Devastatingly, my position is one of those being eliminated.

To say I’m heartbroken would be an understatement. I’ve poured my soul into this company—sacrificing time with my family, relocating across the country, and giving everything I had to help this brand thrive. And yet, in the end, it feels like none of that mattered. In the eyes of executives, I’m just a number—another expendable piece in the relentless pursuit of profit.

This isn’t just about my job; it’s about a corporate culture that prioritizes immediacy and greed over loyalty, dedication, and humanity. Decisions like these ripple far beyond the workplace, uprooting lives, shattering trust, and leaving those who have given everything to a company questioning their worth.

Something has to change. People deserve better than this.
