There are rumors that several people asked about "volunteering" to be laid off after the severance package was announced. Talk to your supervisor about it if you trust them. It may be available to you as an option and could potentially save another... — read more 

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... — read more 

Target india HR is shitty!! out of 2800 members at target India, the HR is a massive 350+ (including their support)... Do not really understand the reason for such a high number as these HR are not to be seen or interact anytime during the year, and... — read more

I have something to say to anyone bashing Target and Leadership. Ok. Time to get over it. Too many good people were let go and that sucks. You now have to make a choice, either accept the new reality and start contributing to right the ship or just... — read more 

Consider yourself lucky. There (no surprise) does not appear to be any actual strategy to execute within the CoE's. We literally go to work and do nothing except stew in our own anxiety and lack of information. This has to be the most poorly executed... — read more 

Does anyone know if RGS in Tempe will be affected in the next round of layoffs?

While HQ became a building full of people spending 50 percent of their time or more in networking coffees, and selling themselves, and marketing their "personal brand," and cultivating "mentor relationships" and developing an "individual board of... — read more 

March layoffs continue next week. About 100 people to be let go next Tuesday, March 17th.

The irony. Investors are glad cuts occurred, while average workers lose good jobs.

Are you guys still living the FFF mantra? I thought Target parted ways with it?

I've been at Target since the glory days of Bob Ulrich and the great leaders we had back then. I was always proud to work for such a great company. We worked hard and played hard and got nice stock options and bonuses. Then Bob retired and Gregg got... — read more 

Is it True?

I am a 35 year old woman. Part Asian, part African American. But all American. Educated in the US. And I want AND need Target to grow. We all do. I will post now and then. My predictions for April 7th may happen but maybe not. But let's all just get... — read more 

Target leadership is very intelligent. They are trying to cheat you. They are converting many managers to senior technical architects etc. How a person working as a manager for years can become technical guy suddenly. Imagine how these new techies... — read more 

All I tried to do was tell you, my current Target Employees, what was going to happen next. And all I got was crap. I was told I was a misogynist. And yet I wear 3" heels. I am a woman, and am trying to protect my Target co-workers. But I am gone... — read more

I was going to try and build some sort of relationship, but Anonymous81112 post on my OP ruined that. I am not going to take that crap from a fellow Target employee. Not now.

I will be near the Bullseye Boutique. And by the way, I am a she, not a he. Someone called me a misogynist on a previous post. How untrue. I will be in the GH, unless Target Corp gets to me first. To paraphrase Katy Perry....I am a Lion and Hear Me... — read more 

Before the weekend gets underway, I want to acknowledge that this was a very difficult week. It's hard to see talented colleagues and friends leave Target, and I have been proud to see the outpouring of support you’ve shown to each other. But as we... — read more 

Sorry, you have to stick it out. The lucky ones get paid to move on.

Apparently they are removing direct reports randomly from people and having them report to the former managers leader. Randomly selected, demoted. Happening across the company because brian thinks there are 'too many managers'. Yes, this makes total... — read more

One of the big problems we face everyday in our building is what I will call a brain drain . we have such a high turn over of g.l's and management in general that the collective knowledge resets every one to two years or so. A lot of the quote... — read more

...I'm here because I don't wanna be laid off. Thank you for asking.

Why is Deep Throat's name keep disappearing from the name section on his/her post and replies? I wonder if Target is asking for information to be removed from this website.

After watching so many talented coworkers get laid off on Tuesday, I really don't want to work for target anymore. Not to mention the fact that there is no job security over the next 2 years. I wish I would have been part of the layoff. Its like the... — read more
