Any rumors? How about TTS headquarters. Minneapolis?

I do know that there is still a shortage of Engineers in Infrastructure so maybe some of the people in TTS Canada can be absorbed into Domestic. Project Managers and BA are a different story.
To @Always Possible (TTS): I actually heard the exact oppposite, that TTS was removing all PM and BA work from India in an effort to ensure that PM's and BA's interact with the business clients directly. I heard India will be reverted back to its original intent which was to be a development hub, since that is where the superior (or at least cheaper) development talent is. So we are hearing conflicting rumors!
I heard this week that once again they are sending PM and BA roles to Target India. Clearly the PM function is something that Target doesn't care about or doesn't understand. If they need only a Project Coordinator who checks the boxes, yes, it makes sense to send some back-office person in India and not pay $360 an hour to an Accenture professional on site who demands first class on his way from NYC and a four star hotel stay. On the other hand, a PM has to be present to interact with the team and be a leader who tackles the tough issues on site. Anyways, the cost savings are obviously attractive, but it is a major pain a few months down the road.
Any info?
