    Demoting from a team lead to team member

    If you step down, your hours are not guaranteed. You could be scheduled 20-25 hours/week. That's what happened to me when I stepped down. Update your resume and start looking for another job. The skills you've learned at Target are easily transferable. I left Target in April 2021 after 15+...

    What Qualities Do You Like To See In a SD

    I had 6 SD's in a 7 year period. Best one I ever had told me "my job is to remove obstacles"🙏

    Stepping down

    When I stepped down, I had to sign a voluntary demotion from that had the new pay rate. Did you sign a form like this?

    At the end of my rope. Rant/advice for a struggling inbound TL

    Do this, for sure. Be honest with your dr about how it's affecting you. They will definitely approve medical leave. Short term disability will cover 50-75% of your income and you can use vacation time to cover the rest. I did this in April 2021 and it gave me a chance to balance myself and...

    Stepping down

    I was a TL, stepped down, and was promoted back to TL 10 months later. I interviewed for 2 sep openings, was denied the first, then we got a new DSD and I was approved. Money was the same, -3.50 for the demotion, +3.50 for the promotion. If your new SD wants your as a TL, he/she can make...

    Stepping down

    Yes, it's very rare that someone stays with Target. It sounds good, less responsibility, but once you've committed to it they'll cut your hours to the bone. Keep your mouth shut, don't say a word to anyone about what you used to be and ask for additional hours and stalk the swap shift board...

    Stepping down

    You're going to lose a lot of it. Also as a TM you get 2 holidays instead of 6 or 7. I hope you're able to keep your hours up. At my new store after I stepped down I was getting 25 hours/week for several months.

    2022 Bounus

    Yes. It took me a year to find something. Had a buddy redo my resume, and applied to everything that looked good. No retail, I was ready for something else. Took a LOA to cash out all my vacation/personal time and a 30 day medical leave for mental health reasons. I left Target in May...

    2022 Bounus

    Nope. I got screwed out of mine last year. That was the last straw and convinced me it was time to leave.

    Stepping down

    Update your resume. Find a better job. If you've been aTL with Target for 5 years, you have transferrable skills other employers are looking for. There are full time jobs out there for the same money and less stress than Target 🙏

    TL Reviews, what was yours like?

    If you get towards the top of the range, be careful. You'll show up on someone's list and will be a target to be performed out. That was my experience.

    2022 Food Safety Manager Certification

    When I had to take it, they had a district wide certification course with a trainer. Sent about 40 people from the whole district to take the training together, and the test was given at the end.

    Team Leader Interview Process Question

    As long as you disclosed everything on your application, it won't disqualify you. I had several drug/alcohol related arrests before I applied for a TL position as an external hire and still got the job. I told them it was the last in a series of consequences that made me realize I had a...

    New Inbound TL

    Remodel team leader

    If you do it you'll be able to get a shitload of OT. We all told each other during the remodel it was a hot ass mess, but it'll be beautiful when it's all done. Just keep everyone safe, try to stay on an even keel, and it'll be great for your resume when you decide to leave Target 😊

    Remodel team leader

    It's a hot ass mess, but if you can make it through, it'll get you some cred with store and district leadership. It's only a temporary position, so be sure you ask for assurances about what happens afterwards.

    Improving Inbound

    Eat more often you'll burn a huge amount of calories. Be kind to your team, it's a shit job but one of the most important ones in the store. Try to stay ahead on transition workload, get all new merch right from truck to shelf. You don't have resources to touch it more than once. Always...

    A question about TL development.

    They're going to run you into the ground all through 4th quarter, and maybe talk about it in January if you do a good job. That's what Target does now, they use people up. There's always another wide eyed 20something coming along.
