Sodexo, a food and refreshment services provider based in Paris, France, said it will not be providing services at USAA, an insurance and financial services client which has delayed calling back its own employees, according to a San Antonio Express-News report.

Sodexo said it will not provide services at three Starbucks locations and five cafes.

USAA employees have been furloughed since March, with layoffs beginning July 30, according to a notice Sodexo provided in compliance with the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act.

A Sodexo spokesperson said around 20 employees might be retained.

The insurance and financial services company had initially extended its work-from-home plan through Sept. 1. It has 19,000 employees in San Antonio.
