You ever think your fellow ETLs were childish and immature?
I'd hate to ever be a TL or above, cause I'd turn into a massive asshole.
Didn't really run into that.

How accurate is it that the more beautiful and attractive you are, the higher up the ladder you promote? I've had ETL's/STL's that are not very bright... but brighten up the store with their good looks haha..
Why are you an EX ETL? Also, what factors play into your bonuses?
How was the amount decided when it comes to doling out raises at your store?
How much does favoritism play in review scores? Promotions?
If the ETL positions were ice cream flavors, which one would each be and why?

Maybe you haven't seen favoritism but I have. I was just wondering if it was as rampant as I thought. I have heard and been in conversations with ETLs that have kept promotions from people because of where they lived, who they were dating and their "look". I have also had the pleasure of sitting in on a discussion on who to give the 4 Outstandings in a store to, only one was based on performance. The rest were based on the same previous items. I have found that the level of maturity in many of the new ETLs is lacking. They are Facebook friends with team members and team leads. They go drinking with the same. They gossip worse than any team member and they do it with their "favorite" Team Leads. So while I do appreciate the insight that you are giving us in many areas, I don't believe this particular response. I have been in 5 different stores now and it is exactly the same in each one.

Sir,
Did you have any TMs with disabilities on your crew and if you did what was your experience working with them?
Did the other ETLs have the same attitudes and experience as you?
Did you ever work with agencies like DVR when you were hiring or supporting TMs with disabilities?
Did you make an active effort to hire and work with people with disabilities?
I'm sure you can see where I'm going here and since we have a lot of people on this board with a wide assortment of disabilities the questions are important, if you can enlarge on this concept that would be great.
Everyone rags on leadership for the endless "statusing," groups of ETLs standing around chatting in the backroom or by the fitting room. But what percentage of these conversations tend to be necessary, work-related?
I tend to take a sympathetic view of these convos, since I think communication really does make a difference a lot of time. If ETLs don't even know what is going on, there is very little chance I, lowly Market TM, will get to know what I need to know.
But sometimes I overhear convos about people's weekends, random rambling personal stories, etc., and I wonder...
I used to get more annoyed by it when I started at Target a few years ago, but now I take it for granted that at any given moment I run into an ETL or Sr. TL they will probably be talking to another one.
Have you ever performanced anyone out? Or have you witnessed it? What were the steps taken and have you ever witnessed an employee being performanced out due to not being favored?
How hard did it hit you that you were making about the same as TLs or SrTLs when you factor in the 60 hour work weeks?
How did you decide to leave, what notice did you give, and how did your STL take it?
I have been with the company since Jan. and want to get out this year before 4th quarter. Can't decide to disclose this to my STL now or wait until closer to when I start looking for a new job (Sept) .
Also also - how much WAS your bonus? Or, just how much do they typically run?
