Is anyone else noticing mass exits of long time employees and senior managers? In the last 3 months, we have lost 2 SOM, Site Director, 2 HR, 3-4 OM, and several long time employees. Most of those leaving have more than 15-20 years in our building, and I’m betting there are at least 2 more SOM...

Anyone else wondering what is up post-Covid? It’s like we can’t get our feet back under us. Target used to have a clear goal, to be the retailer of choice for families, bringing joy for a fair price and clearly be a step up from the Dollar stores, Bargain, and WalMarts of the world. But...

What the hell is going on here? We can no longer ask our HR for help, they said they don’t handle payroll? Someone outside our building determines if we are sick or not? Put in for sick pay, was waitlist because “ see your leader, no coding”. What does that even mean? I said I went home...

How hard is it to get into HR at a DC? Does anyone know if they require a degree, or experience? Or it just another one of those merit jobs, where if you’ve been with Target a while, and kiss the right ass, a token interview gets you the job? Asking because our HR team is fairly useless, they...

Does anyone know if it is required to post for back up positions? Or can anyone just randomly be selected by the OM? I thought I would know the answer, but it seems that lately new random people are training to backup clericals, icqa, and problem solvers without any posting. When I asked, OM...

BTS results for our DC show that most TM do not feel recognized/appreciated nor did the teams feel their concerns are heard/addressed. But recognition and appreciation can be very subjective - curious what happens at other DCs and if our results are the norm, or if we really have an issue. To...

Our DC is finally weeding out poor performers, which means back to full time hours!!! It’s about time they took a hard look at who comes to work, who stays at work, and who cant be bothered. Probably 1/3 of our building is on some sort of CA, and they are almost all hires from Covid and the...

It’s that time again, with HR wandering the building, trying to find out who was negative on the annual survey. Don’t they realize this just makes morale worse? They come into our work area, disrupting things, asking how do you feel, putting you on the spot. It’s anonymous, at least until...

So….cutting hours significantly across our building. But then they announce the option to flex back up if you sign up in my time. Why cut hours then? Just schedule us to begin with, rather than taking the hours away and then making us sign back up for them. Makes absolutely no sense at all...

HR is starting to make noise about the upcoming team voice. Walking around more than usual, asking us to answer soecific questions to help them get ahead of the coming storm once we have access to the actual survey. Hmmm , let me think. Merit raises were shit, many of our LWW are overpaid now...

Not sure if this is isolated just to our building, but noticed here since their big promotion, quite a few of our leads have copped a definite attitude. My role, there are frequent interactions with other teams, and we often need the leads to help us figure things out. I had to ask one...

wowza. This winter so far has been something else! And we all know by now, distribution doesnt shut down operations for weather. Call ins out of control, managers giving some TM a pass, yet others are taking hits for not reporting. And those that do brave the elements to show up? No...

our DC not falling for giving away huge sign on bonuses this year to attract crap hires that will do just enough to not get fired, and then ghost once they get the two grand. Yes we still hired a shit ton, but on the plus side many were much better quality than the hires going back 1-2 years...

I’m curious exactly how the new bonus structure is going to work this year for TM that are maxed out in their pay scale. Is company performance a factor? Is resonating performance a factor? If it is, then its doubtful that anyone receives bonuses., as each month we’re told how shitty Target...

Can anyone store side help me to understand how some stores can be so well stocked while others are not? There are roughly 5 stores within a reasonable drive of my house, yet the one in my same town always has gaping holes in health and beauty. Typically makeup has tons of empty holes, hair...

Why is Target still sending out COVID texts? They have taken away all the COVID leaves unless you provide positive clinic results. They have gone back to old attendance rules, OM hounding people about missed work. So why keep sending them?

Anyone else wondering what’s going on? Through COVID, OT all the time, freight flow was super busy, never a dull moment, and now, BLEH. All my time here, I have never seen October so slow. This feels more like February/March. VLE just about all teams, every day. 401K circling the drain. Is...

It never ceases to amaze me how many do not get the PTO (paid time off) concept. The primary word here is paid, or using your accrued vacation pay to take time off. Pretty simple? You would think, but many seem confused. Your accrued vacation pay dictates on if the approval stands, so let’s...

Anyone else ever feel like your team or DC is run like a boys club? Special treatment or preferred assignments for the good old boys? My team is one of the “smaller” ones, pretty evenly split between male and female, but with a huge age range. A couple of the men, especially one in...

Anyone else had the meeting yet? Our team, well in fact our entire building, results were less than acceptable. That’s how it was rolled out to us. And they were surprised? Really? Imagine that. Constant turnover, call ins out of control, and despite all this hiring only the same core...
