    Archived Limited to 5 Shifts Per Week?

    I was scheduled for 5 shifts for next week and I picked up an additional cashier shift on one of the days I was off. It has not been added to my schedule online, however. Just wondering how this works. I know that technically we cannot go over 40 hours per week, but I don't know if there is a...

    Archived What do the sales floor team members do

    At my store, sales floor does the usual stuff that has already been mentioned in this thread. They are also expected to do their own pulls (because backroom gets annoyed if you ask them to help you with a pull for a guest), back-up constantly (our store is severally understaffed in cashiers)...

    Archived Team Member Applying for ETL, Application Question

    Trust me, I've been looking for a position in my field since I graduated with my bachelor's over a year ago. I wouldn't be working as a team member at Target if the job market wasn't so horrible right now. I'm going to talk to the ETL-HR at my store tomorrow night and then see what she has to...

    Archived Team Member Applying for ETL, Application Question

    I just got my master's degree and have been working as a regular team member for a year. I talked to some team leads and ETLs about rising up in the store and they have told me that I should pursue it, but they didn't really say anything about me applying but rather just getting the training for...

    Archived Sales Floor Hours Cut in Favor of Backroom

    Yes I meant closers, although I NEVER get scheduled before 5pm anymore so it seems like there is no sales floor coverage at my store before 5pm. Maybe they schedule just one person before 5pm and I haven't noticed.

    Archived How Does Vacation/Sick/Well-Being Hours Work?

    Based on that chart, I should have 20 vacation hours and 30 personal holiday hours, but I have 0 for both categories. I guess I need to talk to HR.

    The Things Guests Do/Pet Peeves Thread

    1. When I'm zoning toys and basically every little kid that passes by the aisle I'm in says "Look mommy! Over here!" and proceeds to walk into my aisle (of course it has to be my aisle) and gets in the way of me zoning and starts making a mess while the parent does not reprimand their child...

    Archived Sales Floor Hours Cut in Favor of Backroom

    At the beginning of the year, sales floor hours were cut drastically and extra hours were given to backroom for working on push. Now, sales floor team members come in usually around 5pm (before we used to come in around 2:30pm or 3pm) and we just work on zones and reshop. Not having to do push...

    Archived How Does Vacation/Sick/Well-Being Hours Work?

    Can someone explain to me how I accrue vacation, sick, and well-being hours? I have worked for Target for one full year but have not accrued any hours. I have called out a few times and had to take some days off (including a whole week off for a family vacation about a month after I was hired)...

    Archived Team Member Becoming Team Lead?

    After working at Target for a year, I would say the sales floor team is pretty decent, which is good if I do get promoted. So what are the duties of a team lead? To my understanding, it's to keep track of everyone's progress, figure out who needs help with their zone and/or reshop and switch...

    Archived Team Member Becoming Team Lead?

    I became a regular team member right after getting my bachelor's degree (I needed a flexible part-time job while I finished my master's degree, and Target was the job I ended up at). I think there were upper-level positions open when I first applied, but I never had a retail job before and...

    Archived Team Member Becoming Team Lead?

    Hey guys. So I've been working as a sales floor team member for a year now and just graduated with my master's degree. I've been stressed out about the job-search process and have decided that maybe pursuing a higher position at Target would be a good idea for the time being. With my pay not...

    Archived Time and a Half on Memorial Day?

    Does anyone know if we get time and a half for working Memorial Day? Also, is there a list somewhere of all the holidays in which Target pays us time and a half? Thanks.
