Once again people having time to make up utter nonsense, I really do think whoever you are should have a good look at yourself and your behaviour. The impact on people over the last few days from your rubbish post has been huge. Shame on you.
So
Stock/Admin Manager going
Nights going to 1 line manager instead of 2
Fresh on days going to 1 TM instead of 2
Them 3 things that people have been saying is happening none of it has been mentioned in the announcement today?
Did thing it was rather strange especially the nights going to 1 manager then getting a 3rd shift leader as they wouldn’t make sense considering the fact that stores with only say 35 staff on nights don’t have night leads anymore so that would have meant there would only be 1 TM so then that wouldn’t work as when the 1 manager would be on holiday/long term sick if anything happened to them that would leave no one to do rotas or ARM’s etc which SL’s cannot do
Not sure who you’re directing this at as not sure anyone said anything other than what might happen as at end of day no one actually knew what was happening so was all very hypothetical until the briefings happened to be fair
Phone shop manager will have bandings so band 1 store will have a manager, band 2 and lower will have 1 manager for two stores
The 3 things i said in my last post are all things people said were going to happen on this forum.
Yes correct no one actually knew but not really sure why people said that stuff then
For example someone said days ago stock/admin manager going and another said team support is going but it seems neither of them roles have been announced as going today so clearly it wasnt like someone had any inside info it was purely a rumour that wasn’t true whatsoever!
Glad all is clarified now anyways so anyone who though there job was going when in-fact it isn’t can now relax
Has anyone heard of 2026 changes yet? we think some of our night fill will be moved to twilights as that has been ongoing in trial stores and there’s talk of admin in extras going completely as Admin tasks have also been moved to line managers in some trial stores including Warm Welcome being done from home rather than in person.
Trials are usually a good indication of what is going on.
So what do we know of?
There’s the F&F managers being brought back
There’s Admin colleagues being stream lined and Line Managers now being responsible for their own tasks
Anything else?
Admin Colleagues feel most at risk for me purely because its all on the app now. The App has done them out of a job.
Apart from inductions what do they now do? even then inductions only take place in extras. All smaller stores you do it online before your first shift! so that seems like an obvious free up of hours. They don’t even have anything to do with recruitment now do they?
The F&F one is interesting because if a manager is coming back will they also bring back fitting rooms? I know one store in our group has been trailing fitting rooms again but that would mean about 40 extra hours a week. Where is that coming from?
So yeah Admin seems like the only realistic place they can make changes because every other department are on the bare bones. So why have an admin sitting in the office doing very little when they could be picking dotcom trollies or manning F&F fitting rooms..
