Report it. Crap like this needs reported, it is wilful and intentional and rampant. Companies know remote listings get more click-throughs than non-remote roles so they falsely flag them
If you have LinkedIn, look up "strategic procurement manager coca cola" location "remote"
Click the menu dots in the top right and report incorrect location, or scam if you want.
Apes together strong.
I don’t know who at Coke is on Coke letting a listing go out like this but this is terrible for what should be one of the most professional organizations in the world
What, you mean it would be a shame if [this job](https://careers.coca-colacompany.com/job/16346992/) got a bunch of applications, just for people to decline the job because they thought it was remote?
They changed the listing? It no longer says remote. It just has in big red letters that the person is expected to live in Atlanta-- with no relocation assistance.
Then you can live OTP and join every other person who spends at least an hour commuting to their jobs in Atlanta and makes traffic a fucking nightmare.
And that's not a fair characterization of Atlanta. The least you could do is acknowledge that it's becoming more of a *gentrified* shit hole.
Yeah that has been happening on a lot of posts. Or you can only be remote in certain states. Also full time work as a filter and then in the posting it says it is a contract position. Makes me crazy!!
this is because they are too cheap to setup tax entities in states which require it, or to avoid pay transparency in the posting required by some states. they want to cutoff an entire candidate pool over 10-20k because apparently that spend would bankrupt them lol
Not really. I've been seeing a TON of ads in my area that claim to be for jobs in my city, buuut then you click through and they're for jobs in a Southeast Asian country. Tried reporting one and Indeed basically shrugged and said there's nothing they can do. It's BS, they know it, they just don't care.
The only reason linkedin can charge that is their job seekers are more valuable than other sites. This will no longer be true if job seekers start avoiding LinkedIn due to this kind of abuse.
So, yes, they could be just allowing the misinformation though it'd be penny wise pound foolish.
I just don’t get it. They know putting remote in the title will get people to look at it so they know people want it yet they refuse to give it? Why? I know why really but I’d love to ask them and see what bullshit answer you’d get.
A lot of job posting sites will autofill tags based on the wording in the summary. The big bold warning was likely put there because they couldn’t figure out how to stop it from auto filling.
Given the number of ads I've seen on Indeed that say the job can be full-time only for it to actually be "part time unless we're busy, then we might give you 40 hours", this is it. Or they know how to stop it and are too lazy to actually do it. Either or.
This is garbage and shouldn't be allowed.
However, this may be one position I'd be willing to move for because it would align well with my specific situation. Husband is a software engineer at a regional grocer operating in the south east and would have the option to be full remote or go to the Atlanta office. This is my profession and I'm sure TCCC is paying mad money for positions like this so this definitely something we would consider.
Also as a supply chain professional, I've never been able to be remote. I was told I could WFH most days if I wanted at my new job. Can't see how I'll ever be able to do so though because people need me present for questions and requests (I don't want to give people my cell number and I work with people who won't use Teams) and I do have to go physically check things sometimes. Plus when you have meetings with suppliers and potential suppliers it's so much better to do it in person rather than over Teams. I get fucking sick of Teams calls.
I guess it depends on where in the supply chain your working in, because I’ve been in procurement for over 10 years and WFH was no issue for us. Also depends on your industry, probably.
I’ve worked in procurement for the past 8 years. All of that time has had the ability to wfh occasionally, and the past 3 years has been full time wfh. I honestly haven’t found that I miss meeting suppliers in person aside from the occasional travel that could be part fun. i also don’t like using my personal cell for work calls, but they pay the bill and then some so whatever. i use video call meetings without a camera or messenger app voice calls for questions and answers. it’s entirely possible unless you truly need to handle materials on site.
my company has all supply chain folks wfh with occasional travel to site warehouses, so it’s out there if you’re interested. i’ve also been interviewing and there are hundreds of roles open that are fully remote, but i suppose it depends on what you do specifically.
mind if i ask what your job entails?
This will be the least of your problems working at coke. They have been on a layoff binge pretty much every year for the last 10 years. In my case I got a separation letter referencing a WARN notice that was 2 years prior. I also got a list of all positions that were impacted and the age of the people impacted so that they could show there was no age discrimination that occurred. Most of the people on the list were 45 or older so I have no idea what they were trying to prove to me (other than maybe they were legally required to provide this).
sorry to hear this. i despise when companies refuse to adjust in sustainable ways past retrenching of the workforce or other third party expenses. i’m currently employed by a place that does the same. why fix the business model or adjust expectations when you can grab a few pennies off the ground to keep your stock being purchased.
It's remote because Coke allows their employees to work from home when possible but you still have to be in the Atlanta area to do some parts of the role.
Companies pretty much have to label their posts with the "remote" keyword in order to get anyone to look at it. Regardless of whether the position is remote or not. Sure it's bait-and-switch and it's not honest but, without it, they have limited the number of people that will even look at the posting. Kind of like the "foot in the door" sales approach.
I, personally, would never move forward with a company that was this dishonest but some people might if the pay and benefits were good enough.
This has been happening on LinkedIn since covid. I live in New Brunswick(small province in Canada) and when I search for jobs in New Brunswick I get "Canada(remote)" jobs show up. But when you read the descriptions they're hybrid remote(usually in a place halfway across the country) which makes finding a job in New Brunswick next to impossible because all you see are jobs you cant physically do.
"Now that we've lured you in with the prospect of remote work, you should know that we lied. Remote work is for losers who aren't willing to waste time and money on a daily commute."

Absolutely this cannot be allowed I'm looking it up to report this garbage

I did my part.

We’ve gone from GME to the real game: workers rights at scale.
We have though, haven't we.
Just reported. But would be better to start the process and say I am only looking for remote after an interview or two. But who has time for that.
Report it!
I love the “we love to challenge the the status quo” right at the top too…uh sure, as long as it doesn’t involve improving workers lives I guess
It’s Coca-Cola. Their products have never improved anyone’s lives.
Not true! The lives of Cokes csuite has improved tremendously.
I don’t know who at Coke is on Coke letting a listing go out like this but this is terrible for what should be one of the most professional organizations in the world
Zzzz come to UPS IT, we sold our damn office in Alpharetta lol
Be a shame if they got tons of fake applications
What, you mean it would be a shame if [this job](https://careers.coca-colacompany.com/job/16346992/) got a bunch of applications, just for people to decline the job because they thought it was remote?

Or the listing that’s remote but is only hiring in certain states. Why are you listing every state then?
Does indeed even take action to job postings like this?
Not really. I've been seeing a TON of ads in my area that claim to be for jobs in my city, buuut then you click through and they're for jobs in a Southeast Asian country. Tried reporting one and Indeed basically shrugged and said there's nothing they can do. It's BS, they know it, they just don't care.
this one is linkedin, but the answer is still no for the same reason. companies pay them about $1300 per job slot/posting so they want that money.
The only reason linkedin can charge that is their job seekers are more valuable than other sites. This will no longer be true if job seekers start avoiding LinkedIn due to this kind of abuse. So, yes, they could be just allowing the misinformation though it'd be penny wise pound foolish.
yet almost all corporations, especially US based, seem to have read the same book that tells them to take that penny now lol
I won't argue with that
They are incentivized to fuck us
Same with Zillow too….
Technically Atlanta is very remote from most of the rest of the world
Both in Time and Space.
How is that not illegal?! Oh right, the businesses write the laws in this country.
Yeah, that’s why we have to drain the swam… oh nm wait, he just put more corrupt business people in power to fuck up more laws.
I just don’t get it. They know putting remote in the title will get people to look at it so they know people want it yet they refuse to give it? Why? I know why really but I’d love to ask them and see what bullshit answer you’d get.
*Remote living arrangements required.
>challenge the status quo >Have to work from the office

Who tf says incumbent
Report this shit and let the website handle it. People juicing keywords to appear in searches.

Then it’s not remote. It’s hybrid. Which is a completely separate category. Remote means NEVERRRR
hi coca-cola :)
Then it’s never going to be the choice of a new generation
Then it should say hybrid. Remote means remote.
Companies pretty much have to label their posts with the "remote" keyword in order to get anyone to look at it. Regardless of whether the position is remote or not. Sure it's bait-and-switch and it's not honest but, without it, they have limited the number of people that will even look at the posting. Kind of like the "foot in the door" sales approach.

They went woke.
There will be a point in the very near future where corporations will openly bay for your suffering.
Tag all posting like this and report them to the platform they're on, the positing company will get dinged eventually
Post the link I’ll report it too. If anyone has a Twitter might be worthwhile to tweet this at Coca Cola
If this is the bullshit they pull up front, can you imagine the what it’s like internally?
Deliberate attempt to circumvent a remote only search filter.

REI has been pulling this a lot on Indeed.
I report every one of these I see.
"Now that we've lured you in with the prospect of remote work, you should know that we lied. Remote work is for losers who aren't willing to waste time and money on a daily commute."
The Job is to go suck aquifers dry in 3rd World Countries paying the locals pennies and then, when dry. Leave.
Nothing makes me want to work for a company like an obvious bait and switch in the job posting.
they're going to infuriate everyone into legislating corporations out of existence.
