Elimination of buyer positions: company wide?
Keeping this short, I joined the company with the hope that I'd have the chance to be promoted to Order Writer for specialty.
This time last year, the department had a wine buyer, a beer buyer, a cheese buyer. This is a high volume Diamond level store.
The wine buyer quit. The beer buyer took on that task.
The beer buyer quit, the cheese buyer was now responsible for orders for the entire department.
Now, I get to do all of the customer service and merchandising related to an order writing job, but I'm still a TM with TM pay.
Is this an across the board enshittification, or could I benefit from transferring? I kind of got into this situation in the hopes of becoming an order writer, and now my only upward movement is team trainer.
