I took a TL job because it paid $6 more per hour than my previous job and I was scared that I wasn't going to get anything better because I have never held a salaried leadership role. Prior to this, I was a supervisor at Amazon.

I was externally hired as a TL. I applied originally for ETL as well but they gave me TL. I had formerly worked at Amazon, but maybe because I switched sites, but this place was not as it was. Maybe it'll be the same deal at target truth be told. But yeah, thanks for the advice. Honestly I...

The reason I left was that I actually applied to be an ETL and an Amazon manager around the same time, but Target got back to me first with a counter offer to be a TL, and Amazon still had not gotten back to me. I took a TL role initially, which I genuinely loved, because I wanted to have a job...

Does it happen? I was closing TL for around two months, then I gave my two weeks, and took a job with Amazon as a manager. But it's not going well. I've been here around for a few months, and I don't know if I can continue. Do you think I can realistically land another ETL role, or even a TL...

Oh wow he thinks Walmart > Amazon?

Of course. I worked entry level retail for quite the whole and I was pretty tired of not having any money. That's why I promoted. Also depending where, TLs don't make THAT much cash.

Yeah it does but he's still there no?

I might. If target will have me as an ETL/even a TL I'd love to come back. Maybe I'll go to Walmart.

I know, I know, grass is always greener on the other side. But I miss Target. I was closing TL, and I left after three months to go to Amazon as a manager, and it's been hell. I am struggling so much more than I had expected. I knew there would be barriers, but I didn't expect a...

I don't understand why the big wigs don't use small formats to facilitate urban OPU ops. Why not allow for OPU for items not carried by the store? Amazon has Amazon Hubs + pickup now, why can't Target?

Penny wise pound foolish. If you can't retain TMs, pay review should sort that out.

The key in any kind of leadership context is consistency. If you excuse it for one person, you have to excuse it for everybody. Otherwise, you'll get allegations of favoritism and unfairness. It sounds harsh and cruel, but in other situations where I've been in a leadership role (Amazon) we...

It might be awful, but if you were gonna be a TM anyway, might as well pocket some extra change and a better title for future jobs

I was closing team lead for a few months, but I've since moved on to a different role (manager at Amazon). Maybe I'll be back one day.

Agree with what everyone else has said. How I learnt the store is top-down. First I learnt the general location each department is in. You've got to know if you're going to need a pencil, where is stationary? This is the most important imo. After that, learn how to read the POGs. What does the #...

Do you guys prefer working in the DC versus stores?

I work in stores as a TL, but I'm just wondering how the org chart looks in a DC if I ever am interested in moving over.

Also I've never heard of multiple store directors

If you're the overnight ETL, and are given the resources for it, then I get it. That still seems like a big amount of work though.

Idk at our store, SS covers all that.
