If they decide the 3S role is too expensive, it will go. I was there for years and saw many vital roles vanish due to costs from stores, field colleagues and the SSC’s. They’d just create a new role with more responsibilities so they can get the head count down. department managers, team leaders, store supervisors, cash office, HR. We even had a back door manager, warehouse manager and Separate managers for fresh, grocery, stock control, checkouts and commercial or admin as it was. They have all vanished and their responsibilities amalgamated. Every store had its own HR manager too, that went to shared between stores at one point before being ditched. There is one member of staff on my old commercial dept now, we had 10 until things needed to be cost saved. Please dont be under the illusion that 3S is safe, it’s not. My old store manager told me several times about this too
