So modernization is finally entering its full effect at my store tomorrow. Recieving is set-up for the 4 am unload, who immediately pushes afterwards. Softlines is still setting up the A&A backstock profiles. There is no O/N or D/S backroom team. With the exception of the (newly hired) BRTL and 2 TMs, everyone is considered Hardlines. Flow team is responsible for pushing HBA, Pets, Paper and Chem. Everyone else does Home, Furn, Bed, Domestics, Toys, Diapers, and Baby Food. Anyone who pulls autofills, got to push and backstock it. There is no leaving any backstock behind. That's later.
Now, we have people who don't care or who aren't trained properly. Backroom profiles are being ignored, product stacked on other products, not stored in available locations, Ghosts, baffles, etc. I've had to update and condense 2 aisles which get destroyed within 2 days. No accountability or consistency. Salesfloor not being zoned, researched and filled accordingly. Can't keep fixing if we can't prevent it.
I am gonna admit. This pisses me off. I'm global. This company/my store has given us more responsibilities and takes our resources. I have seen too many good people leave. The rest of us have to pick up the slack of those there for the paycheck. My team has gotten berated for the mistakes of what others do. My "team" is down to 6, with 2 more about to leave. 3 of us also cover SFS when they get slammed or slack off. As Logistics, we do pulls, backstock, item merge, sweep, price change, clean, Flex Fufillment, updates, and any other project they drop on. All we asked for was communication and consistency. When we finally come to a reasonable decision that allows us to properly utilize our people, it gets overridden without notification. People have been forced to pick up 2nd jobs.
When STL and ETL-HR asks people to stay later, they (TMs) can't. They (STL, HR and LOD) ask why. Because they screwed the team by not giving them hours. The tenures are hanging on by the thread. Pretty soon the most experienced will have an average of 6 months.
