Archived Cursed positions/areas of heavy turnover

[HiddenPenguin]

So I'm curious...

Our store has plenty of TMs who have been at our Target for years, but lately there's two areas lately that really stick out as revolving doors: cart attendants and beauty TMs. It turns into a vicious cycle of hiring, training... more hiring, more training... and hey, guess what, more hiring!

Do other stores have one position or one department that they struggled to keep staffed?

(...whether that's from people quitting, going on LOA, being fired, whatever...)

Market TL. Have had 4 in 4 years

Market. People just can’t be trusted to do it all (I don’t trust certain people backstocking) and the TLs can’t be bothered to train them. They expect push, backstock, research and zone within a 7 hour shift lol.

GSA at my store.

GSA is the definition of a revolving door at my store

A+A: dropping like flies with the new "modernization"

Tarbucks: nobody wants to work there, even the TL.

GSTL at my store, between the almost 2 years since I started there's been 4 or 5.

Starbucks at my store, but the TL sucks. Everyone that we had hired during Christmas was kept but then chose to leave, hired more people which also left, now we are training more people and they had to bring in someone from another store to do it

Since we didn’t have a Flow TM per se anymore, I think most cursed position was A&A. The biggest complainers always came from that area and they always wanted to get into it with one another.

Cosmetics in our store 4, team was originally 5 people, 4 girls quit already . Same applies in Softlines

 

[Anelmi]

Most definitely Starbucks.

 

[qmosqueen]

market team members drop one every week. they either call off or ask to be switched to electronic or hardlines.

Market just is way too hard and very few team members working there to get the job done.

In the 9 months I’ve worked there we’ve gone through 2 ETL GEs, 4 GSTLs, and 3 GSAs. So definitely front end at my store

well you had to go there, thanks !!

 

[unknown]

Soon, a bunch of people at my store.

 

[masterofalltrades]

For sure softlines, just because the TLs suck, and the ETL is on a whole other level of bitchery. And any thing front end for the same reasons.

No joke, it would be easier to list the NON cursed departments.
