Archived Interviewing for GSA soon - I need some advice

Maybe I'm over generalizing a bit, but I do run into a lot of team leads drinking the koolaid. There are exceptions though.

Target undercompensates a lot of their TLs, so the highly skilled ones usually end up at better companies. That's what happened at my store anyway. We ended up with a bunch of desperate TMs wanting the TL spots and willing to do whatever it takes to satisfy spot's greed. Even if it meant ****ting on their team(s).

I'm finding GSAs can do little right...and when they do actually manage to get complimented, it's always done to help them miss the sting of more work/responsibilities being added.
 
Yeah they just want us to feel at least SOMEWHAT appreciated so we don't all ragequit on them. Its all a ploy that grows old after a while.
 
Don't do it!!!!! GSA job is very stressful and underpaid. TPS is n09 and GSA n07 so you will lose at least 50 cents pay! I highly recommend you dont.


Not where I work. GSA gets more than TPS. And I want to do this because my ETL HR said that I would be most suited to the front or HR and said that really the only way I would get leadership experience necessary to become a TL is through GSA.

Also, the ETL AP at the store where I will be interviewing said that there will be some movement in GSTLS in the coming months. She said this in such a way as to suggest that if I do well as a GSA I can go up.

TPS is also very stressful. Believe me.
that is pretty much what I am doing... using GSA as a stepping stone for TL.
