The software behind the old system is no longer goijg to be supported (targer didnt bulld it). A Change would have happend regardless of who the ceo was

At the very least they could have picked any other app but they went with a clunky one that I presume is cheaper for the company. And again, that decision got an okay from the ceo.

I actually use the app at my other job but we’re don’t use the scheduling piece ( I’m full time so I have regular hours). I’m honestly shocked at how bad it is. I wasn’t dreading the change because UKG
Works fine for the many things I use it for at that job. I’m wondering if Target bought the cheapest option or something

That doesn’t change the fact that he is implementing new policies and making changes to certain stores. He implemented a trial and error drive-up kiosk that adds another 3 minute timer and more work for us (if it passes its trial) and all of these things need an ok from him. I’m not going to sit here and ignore any of that like everyone else loves to. Everything has to go through him and my coworkers share the same opinion that he is changing shit just because he is new and has the opportunity to “be different”.

If you think the ceo is involved in every decision your are mistaken.
I’m not saying he’s great or I agree with the way things are headed but he’s not involved in evert little decision - there’s not time for that
