Thread regarding Target Corp. layoffs

“I’ve heard”

For everyone saying “I’ve heard” followed by some sensational claim like there are palettes of boxes at TPS, please recalibrate your plausibility sensors or find a different outlet for your gossip.

For those lurking, hoping to find a droplet of truth, throw out half of what you read here, and remain skeptical about the information you’re left with.

I heard that target bought a ton of AI licenses, scraped all of the comms over the last 12 months from internal Slack channels, and created a bunch of centralized AI bots based on the internal knowledge and comm cadences to outsource/reduce TMs and enable streamlined ops.

Many of us long terms have gone through this a number of times. We used this forum in 2015. It was all guesses at that time but ended up worse than we expected. Remember, you still have about an 85% to 90% chance of not losing your job.

@a9 exactly. Target knows that we are spiraling yet they sit back and watch. It shouldn’t be this way. They see all of this and don’t seem to care.

@OP it’s not sensational, there are boxes in TPN on multiple levels. My team works in TPN and we’ve seen them with our own eyes.

@OP when people are focusing on such forums the culture is broken and silence is deafening. Target do better! They monitor this site. They don’t care!

I've heard ELT has driven us into the ground, and middle management are the equivalent of types that have never left their area code.
