First, I mentioned before several major issues, here are some of it plus some new ones this last couple months.
1) Revisions hours are over 40 hours - This would be simply best if ONE person handled this, since we could not get OTs, it need to be just 40 hours cap MAX. Now, some of you may be thinking, what's the problem, if it's over 40 more people could work on it.
True, but you see the problem is we NEVER have enough extra people that would come help with the revision. So, realistically, no one can help with the revisions when it's over 40. NO ONE!
What manager say - Do your work in half of the time. Their thinking and constantly thinking this way make me want to just beat someone up, seriously. DON'T get it, these people in charge! Even they couldn't do any of their own job in half of the time, I swear.
2) Pretty much the same goes with POGs, expectations is outrageously high for everyone, demand people to set 10-20 hour POGs all in a day of 8 hour shift :/
3) These revisions now ask us to change strips that doesn't actually say need to change, it just change something like 1.001 to 1.0002 but everything else stay the same. Problem: Waste of a lot of time and we are not actually given time for that extra work!
4) We planogram TMs doing POGs/Revs are expected to do our OWN pulls, while it's a damn 200-300+ hours workweek. We only have 4-5 permanent plano TMs. RIDICULOUS expectation again! We are also NOT counted in the hours to do pulls.
So this team of 4-5 is expected to do not only 200-300 hours of plano work but also extra work!
5) This is about the backroom/Flow, they do not backstock before they do PTMs and pulls. Result: Backroom is packed, or I should say littered with hundreds of pallets that makes it almost impossible for anyone to go back to walk thru!
6) They never leave a damn key for the compactor, so each person can do their own trash. Result: The trash is constantly TWO trailers full and all over the backroom. Adding that to the pallets that should get backstocked but doesn't (5) NO one can walk thru without wasting extra time, to move these pallets and trash out of the way. *SIGH*
7) We just have NO fun at all anymore. No cable TV, free food, free drinks for a LONG time!
That's it for this post, but I think it's enough to hate Target as a workplace. I can definitely think of more things that are wrong with Target, just seem that this post is already long enough.
And, last but not least, I have to mention this one. God there is this seemingly very workaholic guy that work here. You know what I think?
Get A LIFE!
I don't know if they pay this dude overtime for months, but he seem to LIVE at Target. Every time I go in, I see him there, every time I leave, he will still be there. Come to think of it, they probably secretly pay him OT.
No way he is there work for free! He is there IMO at least 60 hours a week
