Clearly the lack of investment this company needed. Imagine where stock price would be if all of the buybacks were instead invested in supply chain... BC amd the board need to go. Now.
BC treats team members and middle American consumers like throw away dolls, results suffer.
Company is in a death spiral and he has no answers. There is nothing left to sell and less money for stock buybacks. T hanks board members for everyone's incompetence.
Walmart modernized the shopping experience = bad news for Target
Just read this article on Forbes. https://www.forbes.com/sites/tonybradley/2017/02/25/walmart-modernizes-the-shopping-experience-with-scan-go Not quite Amazon Go but better than anything Target "innovated" lately
Poll: who s---s more, Gregg or Briannn
Gregg- took a well run company from his predecessor and completely ignored it. Just in his office all day avoiding anything real or productive. He also completely ignored the previous CEO's advice. Then, pretend a data breach didn't happen. Briannn-... — read more
REALLY?
Trump has handed America a strong stock increase and tgt can't follow because bc and crew aren't competent enough to ride that train. How pathetic are you bc? The tno transition has cost this company at least a 100 million in wasted payroll... — read more
Hoping BC and team announce another round of massive layoffs at next week's Finance Analyst meeting.
I need a reason to be pushed out the door...fast.
Walmart smokes it while Target chokes it.
When is the board going to get rid of "no growth" BC and team? Doing less with less is a stupid and careless strategy.
Reason Target can NEVER make grocery business great again!
I have been in the grocery business for a long time and Target continues to miss the Bull's eye in this category for a number of reasons. The disconnect between buyers, distribution centers (FDC) and stores is way to huge to even talk about. Target... — read more
Distribution Changes?
Does anyone know the facts about changes to Distribution. I been hearing a few rumors about hour changes are these changes for the OM?
Reorg 2017
They promoted people already making a lot of money and gave them more money. Meanwhile the people actually doing the work are shuffled around like chess pieces and still expected to do a great job with no incentives in sight. The environment they... — read more
BC must go!
BC has crushed employee motivation at Target. Everyone just goes through the motions. There is no energy in the company and he will not be able to fix what he broke. Treated team members like a number during layoffs. People know he is not as smart as... — read more
PD&D has been broken for so long and I'm not confident this latest reorg will do much to improve things.
Feels like some of the people creating the bad environment were the ones promoted.
Innovation is out at Target...
Goldfish and store of future scrapped....there is no future.
WTF is Target doing to stay alive????
Amazon is opening new store formats without checkout lines, building its own $1.5B air cargo hub, experimenting with drone deliveries, and they're expected to announce record 4th quarter sales. Meanwhile, TGT recently issued a profit warning on weak... — read more
Chief Sustainability Officer?!
Just read an article that mentions a Chief Sustainability Officer at Target! Wtf? With all the issues facing this company?
Target is the biggest loser in Retail!
Target again has let their shareholders down. Stock price closing barely above $63 today. This of course means Target will again break promises made to its team members with layoffs. It's not a matter of if but when. The executive leadership team... — read more

Except to where and whom to follow? The company that absolutely struggles with diversity, or even grasping a concept of what diversity means -- a white g-- male is the most diverse thing you can have, albeit perhaps a black g-- male – is now finding... — read more
Executive Pay Packages
Can't wait to see how board rewards our loser executives for sub par performance. I'm pretty sure I'll be lucky to break even.
#EPIC FAIL for BC and his brain (?) trust.
Might be time to bring back Gregg and team.
BOOM - Sales s---!
Sorry for all you s---ers at Target that stuck around thinking you would still get a bonus. Wait for your layoff package at your own expense now.
TGT management focus on cost cutting vs. revenue growth

Ghost Protocol
In TTS unless you are involved in digital or supply chain you are a ghost to McNamara. You are only keeping the lights on, no real value....and that is made obvious by who he promotes and acknowledges.
WHAT....has holiday sales info been leaked outside before inside.
Apparently investors are spooked and stock is getting crushed today.....why didn't I get the memo?
For current TGT employees only
This site is mostly people who don't/have never worked at Target or disgruntled former TMs. Current employees are connected via a private FB site, which you can be invited to through your coworkers - just ask around. The info is better (real) and the... — read more
Tts - Paper planes!
Build things which does nothing, is for fun, adds no value and can be thrown away. Do not try to build anything which does actually work like transporting people, which adds value and can generate profit. By this Tts will reach the levels of... — read more
Layoffs. Thing of past....Target is going to pay up for the crap they put me through the last 8 years.
Look, the economy is ready to blow it up! Companies like Target that took advantage of workers is going to have to pay it forward, right now... or people start going where companies do. You Listening BC and JM???? Out.
Baby, it's cold outside
And I like the Dean Martin version....not the crap the PC crowd is pushing today.
So much junk in Target India
I have recently visited Target India from Minneapolis. Cant imagine how much junk we have in Target India. I am sure 90 percent of the engineers can be fired immediately without any impact to the company. They won't produce anything useful. There are... — read more
Heard rumors that NK and SG will be laid off
I heard rumors that NK , SG and couple of other Sr. Directors from Target.com will be laid off in January. Is that real?
