What's the policy on being paid for store closures? ik some people in central/southern florida that are being told target has to be closed for at least 48 hours for them to get anything

I'd assume they'd have to go through the government and collect some type of unemployment.
Little different of a situation, but I had a store closed for months near me due to a natural disaster and they offered the tms the ability to work at a store that was close to the affected store and even increase the payroll at that store to accommodate the higher volume of tms

Half of them are at school and the other half only went OD because they were asked instead of quitting. I swear Educational LOA should have never been removed.

100%. This!

Does anyone know what red flags, working less than the number of scheduled hours that day or leaving before the scheduled time for that day?

I didn't realize they removed educational LOA..

 

[can't touch this]

Educational LOA may not be a thing anymore but there are still loopholes…just ram them with the Crown and put it down as a medical, and as an added bonus the TMs can put their worker’s comp payouts toward tuition

It will show up as a leave early on Greenfield report. Also shows how early you left.

Anyone else feel under appreciated in HR? Is it just me? Does your store show you recognition? Does your review accurately reflect the work you do?

I can see how that could happen as their work is not as visible as other tms. I would assume your job satisfaction and review rely heavily on your etl.

No TM s. Receive consistent genuine recognition here. It trickles from the top so then consistently HRTM doesn't receive any either. You can overhear Leadership huddle s at Starbucks recognizing each other tho.

My ETL takes care of me and my review does reflect what i do. Yes, there are times I feel under appreciated. I work to make sure our TM’s are taken care of and appreciated and sometimes we are not.

Exactly. I just feel that I do things that my ETL is supposed to and it’s not considered when review time comes

It’s just that I do so much more than I am supposed to and I feel like it’s not appreciated and is overlooked.

I do feel I have a good balance at work and help out other areas as much as I can. However, I do things that I should not be doing . My ETL is very accommodating and believes in a good work and life balance. They are also not a kool aid drinker.

Your ETL probably reflected that in your review unlike mine. I just am so done with HR at Target. It’s such a scam at this point

Our 1st HR ETL was cool, he was intelligent and experienced. The air heads who followed were giggling post-teens.

Word on the street is that the position will be eliminated. They are testing it out in some stores. How’s that for being unappreciated?

Have you received your review? I haven’t received mine.

Because they can do most of it from hq or on an app.
A store near me has an hr tl only., for the last 5 years.

It is a small format store? I have team members who can’t figure out how to reset a password. HQ or an app can’t do food, volunteer events, recognition, clean a break-room, get team members to do their trainings. This is just a small portion of what we do.

Do TL's get a bonus for writing a shitty review? Our log TL was a blithering idiot.

Here’s the thing, they don’t even write a review, they just give a ranking number for the team member. Supposedly, they are supposed to have meaningful conversations when giving the review. I’ve had team members see their raise on their check and never received their review.

If they do phase it out, good luck to some stores that’s all I’ll say

I have and it’s literally such a slap in the face

This will require even more Starbucks and pointless meandering about the store
