Archived Team Members

Dear Corporate,

Why is it that Team Members are treated so horribly...not by guests....but by you? When did Team Members stop counting as an asset to the business?

Little dramatic.

I think you mean your own management

Yes, i blame most everything on the current management at my store.

Except management is pressured by changes that were decided by HQ. If your TL isn't on your back, their ETL is on theirs. Same for ETLs and their STL, STLs and their DTL, DTLs and their GVP, GVPs and their SVP, SVPs and Janna, etc..

no your store just sucks

So after the additional posts....it is still the original one that is correct.

Because Target is an evil enterprise?

Unless you are in a particular state which requires payout, U.S. laws do not require that your sick leave and vacation be cashed out when you quit or are fired.

Where else have you worked besides Target? I appreciate that company policies have become less generous towards TMs than they were in the past. Does that mean that all TMs think they are being treated "horribly" by corporate? Maybe this seems trivial to you, but I've worked in many jobs where taking your breaks was basically discouraged, where you were kind of expected to not take your full lunch, where you were expected to work some time "off the clock". I've worked in some jobs where you get jerked around worse than at Target. Corporate could do far better on many of their policies - the constant hiring of new part-timers rather than allowing more hours to existing TMs is short-sighted - but "horribly" seems a bit too harsh.

In some states you can.
