You forgot the November rumors on this site that never came to pass either. People were all wound up about November just like we're wound up about January.

Yes, a bunch of people have been packed up since last week in anticipation of the 15th. Several in BTT and in other areas in Operations. They were not packing for the TNC move as that was, at the time, more than a month away. They didn't know if they... — read more 

1/22 1/29 2/12....List is endless.

When is the actual layoff happening ? 15th JAn gone. WHat is the next date ? 1/22 ?

The first wave of TTS is moving to TNC in less than a month. There has been and will be people cleaning out desks and packing boxes for the next few weeks in preparation for that. No need to panic.

We at Target India are hearing that some Minneapolis Team members have already started packing boxes !! in anticipation ..Is this True ??

Was only your team affected? Good luck with your job search. Hope you find a job soon!

The rumor mill or someone in the know. And can you tell us how "all areas" are being affected? If it is all areas, how are they deciding who goes?

Your GM is absolutely right.. he has just changed the date to fire you.. so enjoy while it lasts!

These rumors never end...i heard 2 dates earlier from a very credible source(GM level) and both turned to be false....he says me another date now...and i know i am not going to believe it...but, just wait for the day until it comes...Atleast now i... — read more 

I am hearing all areas, definetely other areas specially in analytics and reporting

Is this limited to TTS/Target India or are they talking other areas too? PD, Finance, Store Ops, HR?

Jokes are fine and all but I do think people would appreciate less sarcasm here. If your comments are light and funny, share. Making snide comments is rude and not helpful. The rumors have been buzzing for a long time, I have heard at least four... — read more 

The new Org Structure is expected by end of this month

Some directors have said "moving to Target.com kind of model was one of the option" . We know what happened there.

Some Directors have openly said that move to Target.com model in Target India was one of the Optimize model option..while there were other options being discussed .So we know what happened to Target.com

I don't mind the post from TTS ENG. At least he or she called it out as rumor only. My annoyance is with those who speak with absolute certainty, and are really just speculating.

No one on here has credibility to begin with. I don't either. You guys don't even know if I work for Target or I'm just trolling.

You just lost all credibility

Infrastructure and Support are

If BTT, etc are safe...who is on the chopping block?

With the move to TNC starting Feb 28th for the first wave, Target has to notify people of the move a certain number of dates before. So, the rumor is that layoffs were pushed back, but only a week and will be 1/22. I have heard BTT and that... — read more 

I know you think Indios is the center of the galaxy, but it is 3 pm in Minneapolis. You go away.

All is good, it's 2 a.m. in India, so @"it has started" please go away

We've all heard of the boy who cried wolf. We're under rumor fatigue/lie fatigue enough already.

We were all just brought into a room. My whole team for support. Told we are done. Ugh. Going home now.

Can someone paraphrase what was said in the speech? IN the mean time you can appreciate his golfing skills here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVq6Zc8AxYQ

They hired 3 more DM? Not promoted anyone from existing folks on the ground ?

Testing Coe is the most efficient COE in Target India, that is why they have recurited 3 more DM last week :) :) :)

Also wait for announcement on TCS or Infy buying target india. Then you will know what is real meaning of "Work". They will kick your ass and get sh!t done unlike your 2 hour working today (cab reaches at 9:15, then tea, e-mail & FB checking, lunch... — read more
