No it is all about the moves it's all over our store all staff know.

Quote from: WaxOn_WaxOff_8 on 27-01-23, 10:20PMDoes anyone actually have some facts around the situation of team managers?

Only that its mainly Superstores the changes will effect.

The whole 'store specific' will depend on two factors, how big your dot com department is and how much money you take each week, that is what I've been told.

This is why I was asking @greygoose ?

Well all managers been told they got to reapply for their jobs which includes nights. So something is happening in our store.

Quote from: 2ndtimeround on 27-01-23, 02:32PMOr alternatively you make all managers responsible for the overall store and remove the territorial attitude that has plagued the company for years. 🤔

That's what a duty manager does. Needs to look at the big picture and whole store. In SS a manager will be duty at some point daily, sometimes for whole shift.

Are you a superstore?

hmm I don't like that idea. It means the SS can expose of someone who might be capable but they don't like for what ever reason.

If they are having to reapply it should be entirely based on their performance as a manager and nothing else.

This is not true in my store or my partner's store so it's not all managers. We are both in superstores

You will find out on Monday just like the rest of us

OK so -

Where is this coming from?

Does anyone have any concrete

Is this just speculation

Yeah that sounds like BS to be honest.

You can't be made to reapply for a job you already have. What happens if you don't get it? instant dismissal? for all Usdaws faults they wouldn't allow it. 

When i started at tesco,im sure we  had 3 checkout managers,they had to apply for 1 job when it got restructured back then,if a store over structure on managers surely thats the solution now as your all just non specific team managers

man look I don't know, this is what they been told. So I'd imagine that redundancy would be on the cards or option for demotion to shift leader roles. Only way it works. Yes we all find out Monday if not sooner via the news.

Something is happening we just don't know what and again yes it be store specific.

When it happened in my store all managers had to reapply or were given the option to step down to a shift leader role with pay protection. Redundancy wasn't an option as the manager role still existed, it was a change to the role not a complete removal

No, if the headcount of managers reduces the options would be reapply, apply for alternative roles or step down with pay protected for 18 months or redundancy as if there is now only 3 compared to seven for example 4 roles are now redundant ... they can't not offer redundancy when they've removed actual jobs

Quote from: Night Owl on 27-01-23, 01:43PMJust had a look on T careers site, no Team manager vacancies advertised within 50 miles of my store, only advertised manager roles were for several Pharmacy manager positions. I do know a neighbouring store has had a Team Manager leave since Christmas but they are yet to be replaced.
Could be just a coincidence, or could be all vacancies are on hold at the moment.

Not that it means a lot because it could all change on Monday, but I've just searched within 50 miles of various places and there are several team manager vacancies advertised around the country covering days and nights. Ones even a nice 4 night week on a full time contract.

Just because they have vaccines doesnt change anything many stores had vaccines until they removed positions.

Quote from: Checkout Superstar on 27-01-23, 04:31PMIt will be funny if we have all got ahead of ourselves and the only changes Tesco make are to the nightshift and night managers.

I do think its odd nothing has leaked to the press at all other than the Fish Counters closing. You would have thought that if Tesco were planning a cull of management the press would have covered it by now, we've been discussing this for weeks so its not like the theories have been a secret.

You know how much I get working in ex metro express for nights? I get £13.30 an hour right now and on Saturdays i get £15.60 an hour. On saturdays which are bank holidays I get £17.90 an hour do you seriously believe nights especially in small Tesco will continue getting that I highly doubt.It will be more likely we will get our hours cut by half atleast and instead told to do twilight.

The only two rumours that seems to hold weight in my store is nightshift moving to twilights/days as well as the fish counters going.

There was some talk about a restructure  of the front end but no one seems to understand what that means.

If a restructure of management is coming then none of them, including the store manager is letting on.

Reapply how can they re apply if they have permanent job

QuoteJust because they have vaccines doesnt change anything many stores had vaccines until they removed positions.

Do they provide immunity from redundancy?
