The "Co-Manager" Position and EXA/MGT Layoffs

In some districts, half the stores already don't have EXA's. Boom! That means half their MGTs are gonna get promoted right off the bat. Then we may have at least 18 months for attrition to take care of the other half. And everytime attrition occurs at the SM or co-manager positions, another MGT gets promoted. When you look at it like that, its not near as scary.  (Jan 9, 2012 | post #16)

The "Co-Manager" Position and EXA/MGT Layoffs

I think Mr Pawn nailed it...the 18 month to 2 year timeframe means that we hope to accomplish the restructuring in large part thru attrition. I actually think the company would like to do this as painlessly as possible. As a SM, I would gladly split my bonus 50/50 with an EXA or Co-Manager. As for SM's working more nights and weekends, I do that anyway. Do I like the fact that in the future I will probably be EXPECTED to do that on a regular basis? No, I liked the fact that I did it on my own and therefore had the ultimate say-so as to what I wanted to work on during that time...but the fact that I already do it will give me an advantage over those who do not.  (Jan 9, 2012 | post #15)
