Can anyone tell me anything about the new policies about department managers, especially in soft lines? Which dept. managers will they get rid of? What will be their new hours? Right now we have one over men and boys, one over ladies, one over babies and girls, and one over accessories. We work 7 until 4, Mon through Fri. We have no help, not even someone to zone each area, we have 2 processors who never get the freight done. The dept. managers are just stockers who do price changes and mods. and zone. The stress level at our store is terrible. We are down to half staff, and they are not hiring. The sales floor associates work as cashiers, because there are no cashiers.
The talk is that it will be like when we had zone managers. That didn't work before so why do they think it will work now.
