KFC’s U.S. Chief Operating Officer Monica Rothgery, Chief Financial Officer Trip Vornholt and Jeff Griffin, its director of national field operations will leave the company this year, the report said, citing company messages without specifying between whom.
KFC and Yum Brands did not immediately respond to Reuters’ requests for comment.
“Because of these interest rates, some associates across Yum! and its brands who qualify for pensions have decided to retire in 2022,” the report quoted one of the KFC messages as saying.
Vornholt will leave at the end of November, the report said.
The Federal Reserve has raised its policy rate from near-zero in March to the current range of 3.00% to 3.25% as it battles inflation. A fourth straight 75-basis-point interest rate hike is expected next month after data on Thursday showed inflation accelerating faster than expected in September.
