I am not currently an employee of Loblaws but I did hear that when a local Your Independent Grocer store (which are owned by Loblaws) was closed that full-time staff who had worked there for many years were offered a job at the new Real Canadian Superstore at a starting wage of $7 or $8. It would actually be quite impossible for all those employees to find jobs at other Loblaws stores as they are now being phased out and replaced with RCS stores. Another store in Kanata was just closed and replaced with an RCS store.
