Thread regarding Target Corp. layoffs

Target is top heavy

I don't think anyone disagrees that a change was needed. We were top heavy. This company does run and will continue to run with the hard working team. We embody the FFF in our business and personal life. How this all went down and how poorly managed execution is a big issue. People who had the knowledge and experience were exited and people who had no experience stayed because they made less. A person was not given the option for a pay cut or demotion who was a loyal and devoted employee. These are the people who would have brought the teams together and helped rebuild their departments. Now departments are split and the person running it does not know where to start. There are areas where entire management is now gone and reports and payments are not being made because all of the people who did those functions are now gone. A person with no background or any knowledge is left to pick up the pieces. How is this a effective way to run a company. I am a low level peon at Target. I am trying my best to keep a smile, tell everyone things will be alright, let's prioritize and move forward together. This is VERY hard to do when you have zero faith with our leadership team and the board. They have not shown me anything that proves we are going in the right direction as a company. Brian needs to step down and Mulligan needs to take the reigns for the rebuilding. Our VP's and department leadership needs to be allowed to adjust and move their teams to cover the roles as they see necessary and not what was decided for them (yes I understand this maybe more eliminations). With the people we have left, we need to be more strategic with the skills of the people and what skill each role needs as we move together to become the Best Company Ever again!
