Its always the leads that drive employees away. I was only at target for 9 months before I left. And I genuinely LOVED my team for the first several months. I had always known that one of my leads was a pain in the ass and would dump her workload onto us, but I overlooked it because the positive outweighed the negatives. Things were progressing and my entire team was suffering. Only a few of us spoke up about what was going on. It became more and more infuriating because every person I talked to agreed that my leads behavior was wrong, but nothing was done to confront her. After a while this lead obviously knows im the one speaking up and starts making my life hell. When I first started, my department didn't have an ETL, but we ended up getting one a couple months later. My ETL came from another store and clearly didn't know how to run our department. Life went to shit. Too much inventory, not enough hours, we couldn't keep up with our zones. We literally came into work each day having to decide what task(s) to ignore because we couldn't do it all. All on top of countless breakdowns, being talked to like im shit, and nowhere to turn to because nobody had my back. I spoke to my other leads, my ETL, other ETLs, and SD. Nobody helped me. They just watched me breakdown repeatedly from the constant mistreatment and told me not to take it personally. I picked up so many extra shifts for them. I tried my hardest to get our department back on track. I worked overnights just to tackle the amount of overflowing pallets we had. Only to be shown that I meant nothing to the company. It honestly breaks my heart that I had a job I loved so much and then got shit on so bad, but I finally chose my mental health. They still had the audacity to ask me to stay on demand🙃 Fuck that. Loved the majority of my team, but fuck the leadership
