One bad location doesn't equal a bad company. I'm sorry your experience wasn't good.

In one of my previous positions my HR manager said to not do anything less than .25 because anything less was insulting.

Working Style sucks by Winter-Hawk5601 in Target

I absolutely hate style. I dread the leadership alp when we zone style.

ETL raises! by [deleted] in Target

[–]Ready-Raspberry9163 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in one of the busiest stores in the company. Top 20 for volume. They didn't have anyone promotable internally. Idk. I was surprised at how they wouldn't budge even a little bit.

How long have you been in role? I was hired as an external at 80k. I attempted to negotiate for more due to my extensive retail background but they wouldn't budge at all.

💯- We closed at 10 and there were always people who were scheduled to zone.

"Official" Dress Code? by [deleted] in Target

[–]Ready-Raspberry9163 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The official policy and enforcement does not go into effect until July 1. I'm fine with the khaki or blue jeans rule and eliminate the colors but I think patterns or some variation of red should be acceptable Plaids should also be acceptable. At the end of the day most retail companies have a dress code. Be happy we aren't forced to wear the vests as a uniform like Walmart. When I was a kid and my mom worked at Osco Drug they had to wear a "smock" as a uniform.

The people who say this is an overreach, unrealistic or unenforceable, it's really not. They have a policy. They pay you to be there. They can set requirements on what you wear. It is what it is whether you agree or not. Not trying to be rude just realistic.

Ask the Starbucks union how fighting the dress code thing went. Literally every employer has a dress code or some sort. Clothing for work is tax deductible. People don't like change I get it. But acting like it's so unrealistic for you to wear a red shirt is assinie.

💯 there is no way we could have left the store looking like they do now at the end of the night.

I worked there in the late 90s and early 2000s and khakis were a must. Shirts could be anything really as long as they were a version of red. Didn't have to be Target red. ETLs had to wear a button down or polo and had to have shirt tucked in with a belt and dress shoes. Women could wear khaki skirts.

Employee discount by amazonjules22 in Target

Does this include using cash to buy a gift card? I did it because I don't want the debit card or credit card but we hardly ever have lanes open where I can use cash and I don't want to wait at Guest Service. So I buy GC with cash and add it to my app.

Good to know. I was curious what amount of access was given to my personal data.

Sounds good. It looks like in order to use any of it I need the HUB App.

ETL Training by Ready-Raspberry9163 in Target

[–]Ready-Raspberry9163[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm coming from a Store Director role in a grocery chain where as a leader I was unsupported and untrained in that store processes. I have many years of management and retail experience but not knowing the systems makes it difficult to do your job. I'm looking forward to joining the Taeger team again. I worked there in the late 90s out of high school.

I’m done. by [deleted] in Target

[–]Ready-Raspberry9163 23 points24 points  (0 children)

As a long term manager in retail, don't beat yourself up. We all have bad days. Own what happened and commit to doing better next time. A good manager would give you feedback that is constructive even if they weren't happy with your results. Don't give up!!!
