    ETL Interview

    Try looking on glass door for reviews after the date you think they changed. Not a slam dunk but they are often mentioned here and there on that site.

    Archived AE rollout

    I don't have much to add to this but our high volume store is staffed even more like a low volume than ever. hardlines teams are non-existant. pog is expected to do double workload with half the people but still get done. my store has stopped making plans and is running on dreams.

    Archived Business Partners Positions

    just to correct you, they will do it for "$$" it's the target way. Yeah, I LOL'd too, about the LOGETL being the SFTs boss. However, our OPs might actually be doing it at ours (not sure).

    Archived Signing not being done correctly

    what do you mean by "blank backs" of signs? is it like on softlines racks that face the wall of the store (as opposed to the racetrack)? just trying to picture what your issues are. also - do you have a copy of the Promotional Signing Guide? it covers hardlines and softlines and all the...

    Archived New ETL

    Been through a bunch of OPS, along with most other stores in our district. High volume, high risk - typical in urbans. They are the ETL over the Backroom team, Instocks team, and Pricing Team for all of the ones I have seen. Work on filling the floor (Instocks), keeping the backroom running...

    Archived Team lead weekends

    at our store it used to be that PATL and PTL only worked M-F with the team, but now they rotate weekends as well (open only). for price accuracy its not a problem since that team can run w/out their tl. for plano it wreaks havoc since the tl is a mess and never wants to share planning...

    Archived ETL promotion possible without degree?

    SOT, normally I don't find your posts as grating as other people do - I certainly have a more sanitized and more publicly polite view of the company but in many of the same veins as you do. but come on, thats not even what dek was talking about. They were referring to the notion that you said...

    Archived demotion question

    We had a GSA get out GSA-ing by switching to electronics. Think about maybe tolerable lateral moves that might look like you are trying to improve yourself than just run screaming from the front (if getting out doesn't work out as soon as you want). Actual lateral moves however at P09 would be...

    Archived How to make yourself shiny enough for a promotion once you graduate?

    That sounds so cynical, but I agree. Also, if you have changes in leadership, sometimes a new hire ETL will be intimidated by former top performers and try to clean house and bring in/develop their own team. Be solid and steady - but don't knock yourself out because in three years you can risk...

    Archived Advice on going straight from TM > ETL?

    If you have your ETLs and STL on your side, it should be okay. Usually they are the keys in this happening or not happening. When TMs/TLs have worked at Target for years the leadership will all have different opinions on someone they have worked with so much. So while you are new, and have a...

    Archived Should i go for team leader position?

    hmm....with PG11 being starting TL pg, i'm guessing if you are PG9 it would be very hard for them (the store) to make it worth your while.....

    Archived Instock TL also BR Day TL?

    THIS. What do they do in business college anymore? Just give out buzzwords, and "key phrases" to shout over the walkie while they are LOD? All any ETLs do anymore is yammer over the walkie about the line and then go to the huddle and congratulate people for doing reshop. That's it. It's all...

    Archived Handing in two weeks paperwork

    I bring this up all the time. All the ETLs or STL will parrot back is "well, according to corporate we are fully staffed".

    Archived Making a jump from TM to ETL ?

    I completely agree with this. Your qualifications have little to no value. It's all about if they like you or not, or how many hoops you are willing to be strung along too. I have seen them dangle carrots like this in TMs faces, for just TL positions. Think about how many ETLs have ZERO work...

    Archived Forced AE reductions for anual reviews

    My review ended up the same way. At the end of the day - I felt like a fool for working so hard all year. I could have done waaaaaaay less and gotten the same review. Last year I did SO MUCH MORE than any other year and it got recognised LESS. Guess that's what happens when your store...

    Archived Forced AE reductions for anual reviews

    I get that, and that sucks. At the same time though - at least it is tied to something real. My review was not based on the work that I actually did. I would rather get a review that reflected the work that I did, and be disappointed with my raise - than to have stuff just made up to fill in...

    Archived Forced AE reductions for anual reviews

    Honestly - I really wouldn't even care if the raise percentage was lower - it is absolutely ridiculous to change what you are saying that TMs did throughout the year based on a score that no one who works with them - has any hand in. If I did Excellent work, I did excellent work. If I did...
