What is the team member pay cap?

[giftedbadger]

I've tried searching - all the Google results are just about the starting pay raise they announced, and I found a few articles here and on reddit, but they were all older posts and didn't give an actual number cap, just that getting high review scores would still allow for raises. Thanks

I said $5 was cap. Waiting on someone to provide proof they make $21 or more as a TM

I saw a card on greenfield for the annual pay for people for Fiscal YR 2019, which when calculated will say the hourly pay.

I was mostly caring about the receiver positions, but there was some receivers making $24 in R200. The highest TL in R200 was making about $38. Note, the majority of those people have been with Target for at least a 12+ years but maybe 1 or 2 people were hired in the last decade.

TM cap is 50 percent of base added to base.
If base is 15, cap is 22.50.
If base is 20, cap is 30

At 30 cents a year raise I’ll probably retire before I ever reach the cap. LoL

It is no one’s goal or care to prove anyone wrong.

Yeah, I'm reading a lot of yap yap but seeing no evidence. 🤔 😁

My last raise before I quit was 70 cents. Had they kept the percent at 5 it would have been 87 cents.

Yo what fucking store you at?? The highest anyone got at mine was 30 cents.

^^ Seriously? I got the DEO/4% raise and it was 60 cents.

My co-worker makes $24. She has been there 12 years and had a Perishabke assistant job which went away. My TL did her evaluation and that’s When she learned that the TM was making way more than her.

I can't prove it since it's not my pay, but I can also confirm this for one of our Food Experts who was a Perishable Assistant before, but the position went away, and she's been with the company around the same time for about 12 years and she's making $24 with some change while my TL who's been TL for about a year and a half is at $26.50 after his most recent review. This is in Chicago. Not sure if this is relevant but someone mentioned something about receiver pay. I can confirm but not prove our two receivers were backroom TLs before, they demoted themselves to receivers but somehow someway negotiated to keep their TL pay AND raises so they are also well above $30.

They took down the greenfield card with the annual pay. It was there til July 2021 and then it disappeared. I guess since that’s when it tried updating the dataset but Target remembered it and took it down.

I was a veteran employee that had been an etl and tl in my past. 27 years with target. All my raises were top rate.

Pay ranges are a percentage of starting wage based on geographic area. This is how it's done industry wide.

You can be above the pay range if you're grandfathered in, or there was some janky position transfers happening where you stepped down or your role was eliminated and they didn't take away the pay.

That being said I would imagine there are very very few team members making over 20/hr, just due to the nature of turnover.

One person in every department gets 60 cents.

Starting wage in San Francisco is $19.25.

Is this true? If so...😃

Nope. Somewhere around 10-20% of the store gets a 4% raise, which might work out to about one person per department. And maybe some stores do it that way, where they just do one per department in an attempt to be fair across the store.

I got 60. This was the last year Target is doing this.

If a TM was at the pay cap, what incentive is there for them to become a TL? 3x the responsibility for a few dollars more doesn't seem worth it to me.

Donuts. At some stores they get their own donuts in TSC. Unless their SD is a meanie.

At my store, the difference is $6.75. worth it depending on position.

There's a $6.75 difference between the TM pay cap and TL starting pay? Or do you mean TM base pay?

Base. But if you are at cap and promote, you go up $6.75.

 

[JohnSith373]

It really depends on the areas Target base pay.
I think in 2019, TM range was $14-19 and TL was $16-27.20. You can get paid higher than the cap. I’ve seen several TMs make $22,23,24 in 2019 but these TMs have been with the company for at least a decade.
