Considering GMTL Ops team is supposed to do suspects (if you're following the new op model), I'd try to do manual audits on outs and try to get ahead of INF in high INF departments. For example, if storage/utility had been trending high with INF, it might be worth it to audit outs over there and...

Lateral moves to other ETL roles usually result in an increase as well. That's why "getting your second assignment" is such a big deal for execs, aside from the experience of a new role.

AP is a workcenter (Assets Protection). TSS (Security Specialist) is a TM AP role. All of the other roles are considered PG45/TL or higher, like APS, APTL, etc. They're all AP.

P04 was actually the last prototype update for stores until Next Gen & Next Gen 2.0 (dunno why they dropped the P numbering), which came about around 2019. The next prototype update should be next year but I have no clue what the naming scheme is. It combines a lot of different initiatives like...

The one your store follows is actually the recommended 2 GMTL + 1 FOTL breakdown. Both of them sound rough to me though 💀

I feel like you'd get more out of networking above your level through it than the actual content, like connecting with SDs, DC OMs, and HQ people. Looking at the program contents, it's strange to me that they're excluding stores TL/PG45 from yet another program.

There's a recommended breakdown by volume/headcount of who should own what. That being said, my old district didn't follow it at all and implemented a standard for all their stores to follow that was off model. In any case FOTL isn't supposed to own any departments. When the TL for Fulfillment...

You can pull Greenfield reporting and see fills by type, by TM, by time period, etc. but nobody above store level is going to care as long as your fill metrics are green. MyDay will show your current fill needs, and the view work details page will show your dpci/unit breakdown and % fill for...

This isn't always true, some FDC drivers work for Target but the majority work for a hauling company. I agree that the FBC/FBD likely didn't say that. FBTL or other leaders would be calling our FBC personally if they told us to accept a truck like that. Huge food safety issue having raw egg all...

To answer your original question, leadership roles and field/HQ roles have an 18 month period before you're eligible for second assignment (ex. GMTL to FBTL, etc.) or promotion. This can be overridden by leadership though and isn't strictly tracked in the system. Many circumstances can occur...

Technically it is shared responsibility between the FBTL and GMTL (Ops). Ops TL owns all of seasonal as a whole but mini is delegated by the type of product it is currently set to.

VM TM was eliminated and VML was renamed to VM quite a while ago. It's PG45 (TL) paygrade, and gets the same merit increase as a TL would. It's also considered a TM role, as they have no direct reports and don't performance manage, similar to PMLs in (most) stores.

I agree, they already do it for remodel PPAs and things like VM validation on SmartSheet, it's nice for data intake from a lot of stores all at once

SD+ should have access now, and it will likely be available for ETLs starting the 25th. Maybe TL too but it doesn't specify.

Hearing lots of former peers freaking out over this. Looks like Specialty is losing a TL to GM (again) for most stores, and they're forcing the remaining Specialty (2 for most stores) to split A&A even though the guide doesn't recommend it unless you have 3, not including (Ulta) Beauty TL. Both...
