Question for Pretzel man or any person in corporate ----District Manager grade 22's were reduced by more than 50% -----How many Grade 22's were eliminated in Corporate ---if any at all ????
Level 20's and above have fixed wall offices rather than cubes.P-Man,
Thank you for your response. Not that it really matters but the corporate 22's always confused me. The District Managers that ran Districts always had hundreds of Management and thousands of hourlies reporting to them --or that they were responsible for. I know of many "grade Level 22's" in Corporate that sat in cubicles and in reality had very few- if any others they were responsible for . It would be a real shame if we have reduced the districts by over 50% but still have over two hundred people attending the management conferences because of a bloated Corporate office. Of course many cannot see the trees in the forest in corporate.
Level 20's and above have fixed wall offices rather than cubes.
I agree that some level 20's and 22's are not needed and will most likely not be replaced when they leave the company.
Not all Level 22's are invited to the Management Conference.
You were probably one of the last.My guess is that most of these folks are real close to retirement and will be gone sooner than you think. I have always had a deep respect for management and non-management who were senior in there field. I grew up with seniority and thought that there was a place for it within reason. I watched a lot of management folks get close to retirement and the company worked with them and showed them that their seniority and their time served was valued. I always hoped I would be treated the same way. Fortunately I was.
I thought the 22s were called "doors." They get the prestige of an office with a door.
We should all be happy we have a jobI know of a senior mgt who is on the road five days a week, for the past two years. And the upper mgt doesn't give a rats behind about their family seeing them eight days a month.
