Fun with Dick and Jane Office Space Career Opportunities

With the SG&A pump and dump in full effect. Stock price at an all time high. How long does Cornell stay? Or is he getting his resume together like the rest of Tgt HQ employees!!

Please pass this around if you know of any older Target employees (or with the company for many years) who have been unfairly targeted by management to be forced to resign either by cutting their hours or by giving them counseling under false/trumped... — read more

Does anyone know if Target's call Centers will be impacted

Raise your hand if 1 in 6 people you know at target don't do sh!t! Those are the people I'm hoping are let go next week. Heaven help us if we end up getting rid of good people and keeping the ones dragging us down. I'm guessing it will be a mix.

I remember how proud I was when I first got hired at Target as a NE team member! As time went on, things started happening that chipped away at that pride. -Going on those comp shopping trips and seeing how RUDE and ARROGANT the Sr. Buyer and Buyers... — read more

Anyone know what happens if you have a 401k Loan and your position is eliminated? Will you be required to pay taxes on the loan or will it be forgiven as part of the severance?

Can anyone who's been hit by a Target layoff confirm they pay out accrued vacation time in addition to a severance. An earlier thread mentioned that isn't necessarily the case and they are not legally obligated to do so in MN...

although I do believe in the future a lot of our job could be automated I just don't see how Brian could turn that processes around so quickly. For a lot of import business, tons of orders and commits are due next week and we are just starting plan... — read more

Privately, industry analysts put the minimum figure of layoffs at 2,600, which is 20 percent of Target’s corporate jobs in the Twin Cities. Just saw this as a headline

Anyone considering starting your own business after layoffs? I saved a bit and have a few ideas, maybe if unemployment kicks in, that will allow me to finally start realizing my plans. Anyone else in the same boat?

Just think of those... Apples, carrots...

Hi all - has anyone contacted headhunters? Are they responsive? I would imagine they have a ton of candidates reaching out to them.

Is this a sign?

The past 7 years+ at Target has been an excellent learning experience for me. If I get laid off soon, I want to thank the 95% of Team Members and managers that were hardworking, passionate, professional, supportive and for being good all around human... — read more
