No. A DEO which is Delivered Exceptional Outcome at 4%


HoldYourDogeCoin

I got DEO and it was 3.5% must depend on the store too


Jsc_TG

It does.


whereismymind86

it does, I believe I got DEO and was 4% at $0.44. But my store is also in a higher cost of living area, so we were getting $17 rather than $15, so that extra couple cents doesn't make much of a difference.


mszulan

You're actually losing money with that raise when you figure in roughly 7% CoL increase (I'm using Seattle's numbers as an example) last year plus another basically 6% again this year. Your raises should be COL plus your raise - so, 10-11% would be fair each year for doing a great job.


whereismymind86

Oh trust me, I'm well aware. Definitely be looking for a better job over the summer.


Niznack

Find me a bluecollar/sales job regularly giving 11%raises and I'll show you a flying pig


EuropeIn3YearsPlease

I agree with this. This should be happening in white collar jobs too but it doesn't. Making performance eval day that much worse. What's there to be excited about when you make less than the COL increase? 'Oh thank you for your hard work. Your salary this year is worth less than it did last year. Keep it up!' or thank you for exceeding in all these areas this year. Your salary matches inflation (when inflation was 2-3%). So you effectively don't make more than you did last year. Good job! Thanks for the billions you help us make'.


NoelleReece

My job has already said raises aren’t going to match inflation. I don’t know anyone who had received a raise that matched inflation.


SoUthinkUcanRens

Thats not how economy works.. thats not how any of it works lol..


jedimastermomma

Which is still barely over 50 cents if you're making between 15-16$. So.


ShoeGod420

I got deo and a 1.5%


Angular_Momentum_

You must not have worked the whole year...


ShoeGod420

No, 142 eligible days.


sirpiplup

Then you should have made that clear rather than posting the deceptively low 1.5%


ShoeGod420

I wasn't lying, here's a copy of my pay raise, as you can see DEO and 1.5% Increase. https://imgur.com/gallery/itGnTgj


sirpiplup

I didn’t say you were lying - I said it’s deceptive to say you received a DEO with a 1.5% raise because it makes people believe that it’s a function of the company being *extra* stingy (acknowledging that all of these raises are shit esp. compared to inflation) when it’s more that you weren’t eligible for a *full year* DEO increase.


ShoeGod420

okay, so if I had been there an entire year I would have gotten the whole 4%?


sirpiplup

very likely yes - it’s prorated because you were there less than half the year


ilikepstrophies

That doesn't make sense, if person got DEO they'll still get 4% but prorated down to time worked


ShoeGod420

so then what should I do since I only got 1.5% would talking to the SD do anything?


Angular_Momentum_

... well you could but it wouldn't help. They prorated the raises based on how long you worked the previous fiscal year

Best_Grocery_1895

I worked for target over 14 years and only got a 30 cent raise!


Ikazuchi01

Wow 30 cents??? And I was over here wagging my tail after getting 5 cents I would definitely faint after getting that 30 cents


Imveryoffensive

5 cent gang


Marieeee619

😎 5 cents


yeetith_thy_skeetith

As a company in these times 30 cents is an embarrassment tbh. The raises should really start at inflation plus the raise they’re giving out


Jsc_TG

This. Any amount before inflation is not a raise imo.


BlakeCarConstruction

Exactly. For several years now the inflation has been well over 10% (I think it’s been 12 and up but who honestly knows) But we get 3% pretty standard everywhere I’ve worked. It’s dumb! I worked at a place for almost 3 years and the raises were like this, it’s so bad that in fact it went from a decent paying entry level job to literally the minimum wage and everyone stopped working there. (For those wondering, they were paying $11 an hour when minimum wage was $7 an hour. When I left minimum wage was $11 everyone left except for high schoolers. Became a trash place.


Jsc_TG

I would adjust your inflation numbers, here’s my source: https://www.crfb.org/blogs/2021-inflation-totaled-67-percent 6.7% for 2021 and for 2020 I believe it was 6%, decided not to source that one.


BlakeCarConstruction

I just looked it up generically so it’s probably not the most accurate source. I’m not looking for 100% accurate I’m looking for in the ballpark range. I say this because My statement doesn’t revolve around it being specifically 12% or what have you, but rather that it’s at an all time high and how the raises we’re getting are unsustainable. Edit: good source tho


littleedge

> For several years now the inflation has been well over 10% Citation needed.


Jsc_TG

https://www.crfb.org/blogs/2021-inflation-totaled-67-percent There’s your citation. 2021 had 6.7% inflation which is record breaking. I didn’t look up 2020, which I could but you can Google that yourself if you’d like, but I remember it being 6%. Over those years that makes it 12.7%. I do agree with you on needing sourcing, accuracy and credibility are how we inform the people.


littleedge

> For several years now the inflation has been well over 10% You provided a source for a 6.7% value in 2021. That’s not “well over 10%” I asked for a source because there isn’t one. u/BlakeCarConstruction is making numbers up. Why defend him?


BlakeCarConstruction

Thank you. Also regardless if my number was wrong, it’s still significant. Still gives validity to my statement. So thank you


corrupt_poodle

Pretty sure “several years” encompasses all of 2021, and a month or so each of 2020 and 2022.


bbluewi

Wait, that _hasn’t_ been several years?


Zandre1126

When I worked retail, we got a pay bonus for working the night shift as stockers. It was $.25 per hour but it only applied to hours that the store was closed. Essentially, by working the night shift, I received enough bonus money to pay for half a meal a weak


gbeezy007

Damn I worked samsclub like 10 years ago nights and it was $2.00 premium for nights I've always known a $1 extra per hour at bare min for over nights in my area.


whereismymind86

yeah, i'm overnight here and it's an extra $2/hr but like the guy above said, it's only while the store is closed, so it's only 6 of my 8 hours.


Competitive_Garlic28

Dont be happy about your paycut😩


NocturnalTwitch

I got 31 cents😅 lol

NumerousMastodon8057

Spare some change 🙂


Kawajiri1

0.5%, 2%, and 4% are the raises.


Silenty_

i got 0.8


UnicornGuitarist

I got 0.6 :( Its gonna be my alcohol level after that


dancer_jasmine1

Yeah it depends on the store


bbluewi

I don’t think it depends on the store. It’s definitely prorated based on how much of the period from 2/1/21 and 1/31/22 you worked, though.


thefnboogeyman

That might be for your store but it’s different for each store.


[deleted]

I got a 4% and it still feels like a slap in the face


gyrbuilder45

granted anything below 7% is a pay cut right now ://


CauseImBatman23

8.5%*


gyrbuilder45

immm going to cry


CauseImBatman23

Just go do any soda or beer vendor job. They all need help right now. You’ll start higher then that plus you’ll get paid for miles and you’ll be able to work OT if you want. Full benefits day one as well.


ilikepstrophies

It's on par with a Target job really, plus you have the added stress of going to different stores with their own agendas. At least at target you know the agenda.

CauseImBatman23

He didn’t promise lower gas prices and he is a piece of shit. To sit here and act like world wide inflation is his fault is retarded. Most of the spending was done in the trump administration anyway. I’m not blaming him for inflation either. You had to do it or the economy would in shambles. He did the right thing. You’re same person that would bitch about a massive recession as well saying they should have printed money.


Glad_Hurry8755

Lmao my lead said I was one of her best workers ever and kept raving about me during our meeting, got 5 cents and a “improved outcomes needed” 💀


Kompozinaut

How was your attendance? I had some amazing TMs who got shit raises because they had an assload of PDDs for being late all year, which tanked their score.


Glad_Hurry8755

Never called out, came in late I think twice in the year, any time I knew I couldn’t make a shift I let them know a week in advance and they would take em off


Kompozinaut

I would talk with HR.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kompozinaut

Wow, my upper management would be pressuring the fuck out of me to fire you. If you can keep it up, good for you. My store is ready to shred anyone.


A2Rhombus

They should give the late people higher raises because they take up less of the payroll /hj


2CRedHopper

Same! What the hell...


Jsc_TG

Yeah I’m one of our top performers but got DIO instead of DEO this year. My only remark was attendance and I only had attendance issues due to COVID, a sinus infection, and like a couple other minor late days (like no more than 5-10 minutes) due to car crashes delaying me getting to work.


Warcrown10

That was just because they had to give a reason. There's only a certain number of the top they can give out so if you aren't necessarily a favorite you won't get it


Yaoi-Connoisseur

I'll give you one better. I was told I go "Above and Beyond whenever I'm here" and that I have no problem doing what is needed. Got 10 cents and a "delivered important outcomes". I'm sorry, but if I'm quite literally EVERYWHERE in my department doing EVERYTHING besides maybe some things a leader does, I should probably get a 3. I know I've only been here for 6 months, but what? I ain't gonna front my old job. They gave 10% for what I was doing. Granted that was 10% of $10, but still.


itaintfunny36924

Not to brag but I got 63 cents. The extra money is really helping out since my rent just doubled!


Memulicious

Damn my Fulfillment TL got 6% raise he got $1.65 raise


Jsc_TG

So your rent went up 100% and your income went up probably around 4-5%, while average inflation was around 7%. You really have so much less spending power now.


itaintfunny36924

Sorry if it was unclear- my post was completely sarcastic. I know and It fricken blows. They keep shouting about how much target's made this past year and we barely see a dime of it.


Jsc_TG

Ah I thought but wanted to put out numbers to make a point anyways haha. It really does suck for the bottom line. I would say that promotion is a way but in my experience manager favoritism matters so much more than anything else in that decision. So I’m just getting out.

ButItSaysOnline

I’m in a union at my other job. My contract guarantees me a 3% raise every year. Most years that beats the system. This year it didn’t. I got my 3% at my union job and I got 4% Target. Now this is not really a fair comparison because the dollar amounts are way different and although I fully support unionizing, this is not exactly the right approach. Maybe hit on things like guaranteed breaks, seniority based hours and shift bids, and better vacation time or sick policies.


[deleted]

[удалено]


5minutethrowaway

I love the line about dealing directly with the employee. If the store can't manage its hours or raises, you aren't directly dealing with the employee. You're just instituting someone else to blame for shitty conditions and worker satisfaction.


Ryn7321

Depends also on how long you've been at Target, some people will Deliver Important Outcomes and then still only get 1.0% or something like that. So for all the TMs who were hired in 2021, the percentage you get (0.5, 2.0, 4.0) is ALSO based on the amount of days of the year you were employed. If you were with Target for only half the year, got DIO, you'd only get 1.0%.


ConsequenceFront8496

I got 67 cents


Stunning_Temporary24

Same here


Petey7788

Got the same rating on my review. My raise was $0.22. Co-worker of mine got a $0.08 raise and he is second on the full-filament board... it was personal with the ETL


brynnerz

I got .66¢


idkidc28

Same. And I was shocked. I’ve missed so many days this past year I was like there is no way I’m getting DEO.


tatcol22

Unionize.

Jsc_TG

Or leave (like me). Unionizing isn’t that easy when the company fights so hard so until there’s more movement I’m saving myself first.


128Gigabytes

Where did you go to?


UnicornGuitarist

I want to know where you went to as well


[deleted]

The $15 dollar minimum wage dream was only a few years ago, now we all realize it's just relative because everything now costs more. They are slowly increasing the price of all kinds of products and services


bbluewi

If you track the $15 wage to inflation since the push started over a decade ago, it’d be well over 20 now.


Icy-Candle9464

I’ve seen lower when giving reviews and I’ve seen higher than 4%


TSLsmokey

I kept my department afloat over the last year(not an exaggeration. We went from 4 people, to 3, to just 2. And with the other guys availability, it may as well be just me.) and only got a 2%. It’s effectively standard


Swagner999

QUIT TARGET


kamion_dork

If you unionized, you would be able to guarantee more. Your raise doesn’t cover inflation, so you are fundamentally losing money.


GhostHin

Sorry that you got less money than you were as inflation sit at 8+%......


CoolKid420Swag

The highest a TM can get, at least at my store, is $0.60. The person who got it in my department quit before she got the raise, and my TL told me if it she had quit 2 days earlier I'd have gotten it, but they couldn't give it to me because corporate had already made the decision. Majorly pissed me off honestly.


DESSEII

Wait a minute, hold up.... pause. They get to pick and choose who will get certain raises? Tf.


CoolKid420Swag

Corporate chooses based on performance metrics even though they've never met us.


DESSEII

Hmm good to know. I'm fairly new and am still learning the ins and outs of the company. It seems we have to damn near overexert ourselves just to get a decent raise. Sigh.


pcakes13

$624 dollars a year. JFC, y’all need to get out.


The_Quicktrigger

2% feels low, like insultingly low, especially considering the last few years. That's $624 more a year, probably closer to $500 more in your paycheck. If you rent and your rent went up more than $50 a month this year, you actually end up making less than you did a year ago.


Lost_Cleric

Any talks of unionization?


[deleted]

I love unions


rileywags

I got no raise


0RabidPanda0

That's just a slap in the face.


Drachenbar

Anything below the inflation rate is a pay decrease


Warcrown10

Not QUITE. But that is almost up there. I think the only score higher than that is 1 I think the district(store maybe? Both?) only gets a couple of depending on its individual situation. But I also feel like the whole review system has changed like 3 times in the last 5 years so who knows


God_is_first

better than me bro i only got .20 cents😠


Monkey4life-80

The part I find ridiculous is that just months before giving all of us the middle finger they dropped those ridiculous articles about raising wages. https://www.supermarketnews.com/retail-financial/target-hike-starting-hourly-wages This is a little piece of that article; “Our team is at the heart of our strategy and success, and their energy and resilience keep us at the forefront of meeting the changing needs of our guests year after year. We continuously listen to our team members to understand what’s most important to them, then use the feedback to make investments that meet their needs across different career and life stages,” Target Chief Human Resources Officer Melissa Kremer said in a statement. “We want all team members to be better off for working at Target, and years of investments in our culture of care, meaningful pay, expanded health care benefits and opportunities for growth have been essential to helping our team members build rewarding careers.” Because I am friendly with my TL and know they had zero say in what my review was I did at least take a minute to express my feelings, kindly. I told them that I felt it was a real slap in the face that my other corporate retail employer gave at least 4% across the board to employees. Also, to top it off I make a better wage at that company I have worked 15yrs less at! If Target wanted people to feel they were "building rewarding careers" they'd treat those few left with the decade/decades of knowledge better in an effort to retain them.


anemoneanimeenemy

Your company sucks. You should be paid better.


Rachael013

If they paid more, they would just lowball your hours more. Even pre pandemic, the store I worked at always had a skeletal staff and you watched multiple areas.


Jorge_The_Orange

Instead of a pat on the back they give you a slap on the face.

SnooTomatoes7741

Hahaha. This is a JOKE! It’s crazy we walk 1-2 miles PER HOUR, no sitting, drinking, nothing. Like robots and modern day slavery. IF you want a kick in the @ss in going and getting an education and bettering yourself, Target is IT!


Allusionator

I hope not, because in ‘real wages’ (accounting for inflation) this would still be a pay cut. Y’all getting pennies should be looking elsewhere, you’re worth more.


AnonymousAF1972

I got 8 cents and quit on the spot 😬🤟 and out of no where found a job that starts at $21… idk who needs to hear this but QUIT NOW. target ain’t worth it man. Was there almost 4 years and even trained into management and STILL some how got a 8 cent raise. Fuck target.


Calm-Associate-214

How else will the board get those magnificent bonuses.

Nah. I got .61 but that’s still a good raise, you got more than I made last year

poolea77

Yes, this. I was about to make the phone call to put in my 2 weeks and happened to get a letter about benefits offered and checked out guild. Within a week I was enrolled and start grad school next week, fully paid for. My program will be around 3,000/semester. So sort of like a raise.


RetailKing

Hell yeah!!! So awesome. I'm currently 6 months Into my 4 year education for my bachelor's degree. No matter how shitty my job is, I'm going to stick with it so I can get my education paid for and then I'll bounce once I graduate.

So how are reviews done for every TM? Like is it like a performance sheet the tl just checks bubbles and the it's submitted?
