After years of working at Target and trying to promote diversified people I find it almost impossible. I am almost retired but was cross- trained at target back in the day. I grew up in a different culture one where I was happy when people who couldn't even speak English could advance due to some teaching and encouragement. now it simply does not matter...white people are promoted unfairly as they know nothing because they are ingrained to know nothing from their obsolete team - leaders. I never had a job where I wasn't challenged to do all I could do but also to
Think out of the box. At Target there are no clear pathways to advancements not only for white people which I am but so much harder for diversified people. HR is a joke they don't develop you. Teams leaders are a joke ...no developement..only tell people they are slow..which results in constant turn -over and costs big time in the long run. I might only be the cook but if Target wants two evolve and move into greatness it has to start at a management level with a clear and open way for people of all cultures to thrive. I'm an old POB. But really would like to make a difference before I get fed up & can't take it anymore. If you gave me 2 bosses and 2 employees I would challenge Target Corp to sit down with me and discuss Logistics,Branding/signing,job creation and ending of team leaders and real teaching and promotion for all people.
