- training provided by senior team members is not a consistent endeavor once initial training for the position has occurred.
- learning does occur, but primarily at moments where continued training should have been part of the development process.
- evaluations are performed yearly, with very little mentoring and professional development in between.
- structured training is a rarity, but learning about the position will occur over time.
- specifically applicable to the PA position, if a TMs background contains experience via a grocery store Produce Department, he/she will be disappointed in the operation of the pFresh concept – it is not a conventional produce/perishables department, nor functions as such; managing Gross Profit is not the focus.
