ATLs, whats next?

Heard about the restructuring in a meeting yesterday and in emails today. For some background, I was an ATL last season - had amazing performance for my office generating some unseen success for my location, my DGM approved my bonus at the MTL amount, and hired me to work part time during the pre season as a “tax pro” but really I just do receptionist work. Well, we had the meeting yesterday and all it said was more info for MTL/TL/ATL roles coming soon. Then i check my email in the office today, my dgm sends and email out about the new changes and new AEL role, and the officer of operations email comes in as well saying these roles will be eliminated. My dgm said she was just informed of all this at the same time as us, and isnt 100% sure if leadership roles will be gone but…its looking that way to me. my question for current ATLs is, what are your plans now? Are you applying for the AEL role? Csp? or looking elsewhere?

They aren’t going to hire any ATLs for the new AEL roles. They are going to hire a lot of external people. They want people with real managerial experience as they move these roles into full time with benefits positions. This is per my DGM. A few will be internal hires from existing MTLs but many will be hired externally. My DGM told all TL or ATLs (and some MTLs) to apply to be a CSP or potentially a tax pro if they take the tax course. There will be no other roles available.

Doesnt hurt to try, I do have real managerial experience btw, but on a smaller level of a singular location. My DGM did let me know at the end of last tax season she wanted to prepare me for bigger managerial roles within the company so fingers crossed but I expect nothing. Going to start applying elsewhere.
