Topics regarding layoffs at Target Corp.

Who are your real friends at Target?

A lot of women did not buy the FFF, either, like me (the original poster). I really wanted to work, not go outside and play horseshoes as a "team building" activity. I wasn't a crabass about it, I had fun (hey, it was summer and they were paying me)... — read more

More than 75% of TTS to be let go?

Coworker was in an all-dotcom mtg yesterday. New CIO showed up and said he ran a much more complicated operation with just 500 people. Doesn't TTS have at least 2000 right now?

More TTS VPs gone

Lost two more VPS today :-( (fake sadness). Does anyone in the C-suite know how to evaluate talent? Derodes promoted these clowns to VP after he fired all their predecessors. Now half of those VPS are gone at MM's hands. The other half are crapping... — read more

Everything wrong with Target Operating Principles.

So there is a movement afoot on insidetgt to identify and then vote on practices that are painful to team members and maybe a waste of time. Sad thing is that as usual instead of identifying the process with the most savings associated with cutting... — read more

Devops presenting in meetings

At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points and my god have mercy on your soul.

The Survey = No severance packages....maybe?

Maybe the survey is a just a way for Target to have another round of layoffs but not provide severance packages? (Cost Optimization) They will now be eliminating team members based on skill set that could be their reason to not provide a severance.

Target.com still sucks

I would like to congratulate Target for the hundreds of millions spent on Project Everest, which was so terrible that it required the ENTIRE site to be re-coded, which brings us to the present state of Target.com, arguably still the world's worst... — read more

Minneapolis media get ready to report more layoffs

Of course if you were doing your job you would be asking some hard questions right now . Easier for you though if you just wait for target to issue press release. Glen where is your team? Did you buy that paper to line the kitty litter box?
