Well my store is AA+, and we only have 2 gstl 2 gsa.... I cant imagine a AAA+ having more than 4 gstls really....

Maybe its a 2 level store? Still seems excessive,but that's the only thing I can think of.

You don't have any openings, do you? My store is an A+ and we have 3 GSTLs and 5 GSAs.

The higher the org chart, the more sales your store does in a year.

Here are the official org chart brackets for AE2012

1	$0M	$26M
2	26	36.5
3	36.5	45.4
4	45.4	53.8
5	53.8	67.1
6	67.1	75.3
7	75.3	83.5
8	83.5	91.7
9	91.7	99.9
10	99.9	108.2
11	108.2	116.4
12	116.4	+

We have one GSTL and one GSA as a Tier ONE store.

 

[redandkhaki]

we're AA+ and we have two gstl's and 5 gsa's. we did have 6 but one was very part time and we haven't opened another position for it.

OOh..please let us know. Now I'm very curious. It doesn't sound like a bad thing tho..

I've been selected by my STL and approved by DTL and HRBP to be bumped up to PG15

Way to go PricingMaster! It's nice to see that hard work is rewarded!

Here's an even better idea, help me get this word document from read only so I can post it.

I wouldn't be too quick to post an internal document. It's read only for a reason.

He didn't actually post it, he PM'd links to images of it to certain active members.

 

[StaticSun]

I didn't get a PM.

:suicide2:

 

[StaticSun]

Haha, that's the same document I read a few months ago and it's where I initially read about the overnight hrtl.

Hardlines, I was just wondering if you happened to kbow how the volume letters correspond to the org chart? I'm familiar with volumes, just not how they correspond to the chart you posted. Much thanks in advance!!

 

[Hardlinesmaster]

You were a c volume in march. Go under store facts in workbench, for more details.
This may help:

ULV is an acronym meaning ultra-low volume and is typically used in reference to D and C volume stores.

Either that or the store is mega-high volume and the front end team is gigantic.

I believe his store is one of the top 10 in the company.

What's this AE2013 stuff? I've only worked at Target for a little over 3 months.

simply put: plans Target has to make the company more profitable for next year

reality: hoping we don't lose our jobs, and worrying we won't and will have to make do with even less to do more.

Achieving excellence 2013, it tends to (by "it" I mean any years given AE) be viewed negatively b/c it cuts at a lot of mid-level/low-level management (i.e. ETLs/TLs). It's not near the beast many suggest it to be, but it can be a bit sucky.

It's where they determine where they can cut hours/positions to save money by trying really stupid things.

Here's an example:
At our store when they determined that we only need on ETL for the entire store for the salesfloor.

It's a yearly plan that is released concerning store level employee restructuring.

It was pretty d@mn sucky for me 2 yrs ago when it eliminated specialists.
Seriously, I've yet to see any recent AE changes that benefited TMs.

I hope the consider looking at the in stocks Backroom TL thing and give the in stocks portion to a SrTL SF. I'm a Org chart4 borderline every year to move to 5 but we never hit that 53.5 mil without phar/photo/and cafe. Org chart 5 they spilt the role.

I don't remember which org chart my store is, but we're A+ volume and don't have the combined Log TL. Instead, one of our Hardlines TLs is also the Instocks TL.
