Not much going on about 'Pay review 2023'

Expect there'll be a lot more come Tuesday when meetings kick off. I don't hold out much hope of anything particularly decent 

The Wage clerk in our store thinks they are a cut above everyone else so it should be funny to see their reaction when they find out their role is going. 

Has anyone heard about the pay for managers? There's a broad expectation of increases to the order of 4.2-7% from what i've heard which matches up with TMs starting salary being pushed up to £28k a year.

We must work in the same store, and if we don't - what is it with some wages clerks in Tesco? They seem to look upon us as underlings whose wrongly calculated underpaid wages are none of our damned business.

I can't see our wages clerk wanting to take a step down to work amongst us mere plebs, it would be well beneath her. And anyway, all that physical bending, stretching and reaching would surely play havoc with the situation of her neatly placed tiara. Nah. Can't see it. 

Night and day, store managers have had the meat of the pay rise available to them on work and pay since a few weeks ago, shows ineptitude if they don't know how to since even the walk through on it are on Tesco Helps stores apps work and pay 

Max WL1 wage 36K.

The big question around this pay rise is in my opinion DO THE WAGE BANDS CURRENTLY EARNED WEIGH UPON THE RAISE.

I've always been an exceed. I had 3.6% last financial year and the minimum earning 24.5k manager moving to 26k a few months ago going to 28k this year getting essentially 14.5% to fail upwards.

Why bother getting an exceed if minimum wage increases at the bottom end mean that tesco have to scramble to increase the minimums to retain management which result in pay increases beyond the scope that can be earned in pay brackets.

Simple message, deliver the minimum. To everyone on 30k that has a 10% increase remember that after tax that's raise is £156 a month. Did that pay your gas/electricity. Or food. Or fuel. Or mortgage. What about combined?

Honestly. If anyone wants a pay rise just work the odd 2 Sundays a year, it's the same as a met or more without having to give a s***.

I thought one of the the plans with the introduction of shift leaders was to stop using managers for Sunday overtime?

Probably a longer term plan, but would be a disaster if you left just barely trained shift leaders alone in stores when open and trading on one of the busiest days of the week.

@kaled yeah shift leaders are the plan, but in the real world people have sickness / holidays / mat leave and a million other things which still need cover throughout a standard year.

I was a little angry yesterday after having a conversation with another manager, it was along the lines of my 8 years of Blues (in old money) and exceeds have basically now been eroded as an entry level / not met or for whatever reason manager is now basically on par with what I earn. In 2010/11 when performance related pay was enacted I'm sure they didn't forsee inflation being what it is now, but this situation is what it is.

I understand that GAs should be angry as well. The old 3.6% annual share rewards turned into a bonus which turned into a straight pay increase which in turn was eroded to minimum pay. In the space of 6 years the relative pay packet has been massively eroded while the unions stood by and gave themselves a pat on the back year after year for a job well done

While I'm sure that's the plan, I know of at least one team manager who came in on overtime every Sunday and picked up a 6 hour checkout shift😂
Store manager and lead manager were p****d every week but there was nothing they could do to stop it.
I also know that one of the remaining team managers has said they will do the same if they are stopped doing overtime on the management rota, again nothing the company can do about it.

@techsupporter, I know the feeling.
Get a miss review and have up to a 4k pay rise, get a met or above and lucky if you get 1k.
Think store managers are going to be either surprised at the backlash or know it's coming.

When does the team managers pay get announced?

I was at work today and my boss said it will be announcement this week.

Individual Managers will be told their pay awards from tomorrow

Had mine today

What was your % ??
Please do not quote immediately prior post(s).   Admin.

Why bother giving us a pay rise.

Has anyone had there's yet and know the % I'm hearing all sorts

Seen a manager at 30700 get 5.8% on an exceed how / what;

Heard, but not confirmed, a met manager at 26k getting 10% 

I'm on 27 so wonder what mine will be

Any team managers willing to share pay review info to compare and make sense of what they have done and how fair it is?
Think it would help to compare from a wide pool

4.5% as you can imagine I'm well chuffed with that might go out spoil myself to a full tank of fuel

What is your salary, wondering if it's less for the more you are on?

Any word on what newly appointed managers will be starting on?

£28750 now the starting rate
