The retailer said it will combine its Midwest and North regions and reallocate within its regional divisions to streamline its operations.
It is cutting front-end employees at some stores, although it did not specify where or how many. It will also reduce staff behind the scenes, including some merchandise planning positions and central office roles.

The company, with corporate offices in both Cincinnati and New York, has 175,000 associates.
Thanks.
