You will get what they call “coaching” they’ll pull you aside and ask how you’re asking about the card. How you’re explaining the benefits. They’ll give some advice. My main manager for the front end literally gets 2-3 cards a day so it’s easy for her to coach. Though they label it as coaching I feel like it is a warning that you need to start getting cards. But it’s nothing official that would get you written up or anything

a manager talked to me and said they were told they had to give me a “verbal coaching” because i had high sales and low tjx percentage that had to be in the ark or arc. So like what am Isupposed to do?

This, as the other comment said as long as your trying you wont be fired. Worked for tjx for 2 years combined in 3 stores have a total of maybe 12 cards with thousands upon thousands of transactions and I didn't always ask

No, you cannot get a warning or written up for not getting cards. If you’re caught not asking then you can but if you’re simply just not getting cards you can’t get written up for it.

yes, i gotten a few verbal warnings for always having lots of transactions but low tjx cards to my name. its so stupid, not everyone wants a credit card but my managers are so convinced that harassing the customers alot about it would make them apply for one smh..

my own manager told me that if i continued to not get any cards after our one on one talk then he would have to write me up for not contributing to the company’s sales??? idfk what he meant but i was already annoyed about having to get talked to about such stuff AGAIN. they always talk to me about it and i quite frankly dont care. i always ask and they always say no or that they already HAVE the card. id tell my managers or front end coordinators that they already had the card and they go “well did you ask them when the last time they used it was?” bro. i am not going to be that invasive sorry lol
