All points thus far echoed. At least in OB we don't need to worry about PIT right away, but the physical work especially in this heat is just killer for 90% of the people they are bringing in.
Seriously, I dont give a shit about Targets liberal "everyone is the same viewpoint" please stop putting overweight women whose previous job was a call center in Outbound. They stand zero chance.
We are at the point where instead of the old 50% --> 75% --> 100% progression they are doing 50, 60, 70, 80, 85, 90, 95, 100. An eight week progression toward doing 100%.
And they are all still struggling. Meanwhile the few who are actually good are standing around with nothing to do.
Best part is 8 weeks in is about when new hires in OB start getting trained to sort. So many of these people have never actually run at 100% prod and are now sorting and they have zero idea what they are doing.
And then only 3 more weeks of that and having our "Yellow Captain" knocking down their full lanes while they take multiple bathroom breaks an hour, and they hit their 90 days get the bonus and will probably quit!
When this started our SOM told us they were going to double the ammount of trainers in the building to handle the hundreds of new hires. 8 this day, 9 that day. We are down a trainer from last year and our current trainers aren't what I would call the best. They definitely aren't the best choice to be training in base functions when they seldom do them, at the very least.
