Safeway But the difference at Safeway is, the chances of you catching them at their cheating is greatly reduced by the mere fact that they've polluted the receipt with all of the Club Card rebate complexity. But I say it's intentional deception on Safeway's behalf -- and nobody at the home office is going to change my mind on that, regardless of how they spin it, or how much of their juvenile pathological logic they try to interject as a smoke screen. Safeway's fraudulent infrastructure consists of an entire suite of elements, each of which works in unison with one another. www.langenberg.org /safeway.html   (7195 words)

Safeway Shareholders Discuss Corporate Governance Issues, 4/5/04 Citing the company's dismal performance and pervasive conflicts on the Board, some of the nation's largest institutional investors today urged Safeway Inc. shareholders to withhold their votes from the CEO and two other directors during a presentation in New York leading up to the company's May 20th annual meeting. Safeway then issued its own statement saying that Safeway has provided an excellent return for shareholders and that pension fund officials are being urged on by unions in the wake of a labor dispute and by political motives. Fund managers representing about 55 percent of Safeway stockholders participated in a "Wall Street Briefing" during which financial leaders outlined their reasons for withholding support from Safeway CEO Steven Burd and Board members William Tauscher and Robert I MacDonnell, the only Safeway board members that will be on the ballot at the annual meeting. www.osc.state.ny.us /press/releases/apr04/040504.htm   (904 words)

The Seattle Times: Business & Technology: Pension funds campaign to oust Safeway chairman Although Safeway secured the labor cuts in Southern California that could help its earnings and stock price, the strike caused such bitterness between management and labor that "in the long run we're not sure it was in the best interests of the company," Thompson said. Safeway is now negotiating contracts in other parts of the country. The dissidents mainly complained about Safeway's depressed stock price and what they said was mismanagement, and asserted that several directors have conflicts of interest because of business relationships with the supermarket chain. seattletimes.nwsource.com /html/businesstechnology/2001888253_safewayousters26.html   (633 words)

Safeway CEO faces disaffection in ranks / Pension funds are expected today to call for split title Brian Dowling, Safeway vice president for communications, and Julie Hong, head of investor relations, said this week that company executives have met 60 to 70 percent of Safeway's major institutional investors since late March, when the pension funds went public with their campaign against Burd.
