I was honest and authentic with you, Target Execs. If even half of the team did the same, there is no way you can spin the results as being essentially favorable. Clearly you do not ascribe to the happy employees = successful business equation. The Target Team is a constant state of fear. Where will Brian wield his mighty axe next? They are not cutting poor performers. If they think your job can be done in India, kiss it good bye--no matter how well you perform your duties. Senior Management is all about the bottom line and raising the stock price in the short term. Brian will move his slash & burn Karaoke hour to the next company in a couple years and then we will see what's left. Do I think Target has needed to change? Hell, yeah. But there's got to be a better way to do it. Management still seems too top heavy and Brian and his choppin' buddy John have done nothing to dispel the transformation/layoff association.
I guess it wouldn't matter if I re-took the BTS. My voice is not one you want to hear, my story isn't one you want to acknowledge. I have loved my job, my team, and Target. I will continue to work hard towards this company's success until I get my own 9 AM meeting invite.
