Advice: If you stay, start setting boundaries right now...
Timing
I know tomorrow morning is when the meeting will be, but anyone know timing of when invites will go out? 4pm today or 7:30 tomorrow morning?

Layoffs in India
Do you know what the impact will be on India? How deep and wide will the cuts be and who is being laid off?
CAREFUL: Job Search Timing
If you start a new job before the 60 days are up, you won’t receive severance pay.If you get a new job but delay your start date until after 60 days, you’ll still get your severance check.This depends on the layoff terms and when you sign the... — read more
Personal files on work laptop
I understand we should not have personal documents on work laptop but if you have them, how are you transferring them? Is email the best way to go
Is IT spying on me?
I sent several legitimate personal documents to my own email today and noticed something in my Mac Finder under “locations” I’ve never seen before. Under iCloud Drive and OneDrive, there was a network icon titled “my first name” in all... — read more

Any insights on department patterns or heaviest hit
Has anyone seen or heard if there are areas that are likely seeing more hits now that we're getting more invites. Sorry, no info here .
Guild Access

60 days is the Warn act
Wanted to ensure everyone knows that the 60 days that is provided is not out of generosity of target. Its a way they are actually getting around notifying the minnesota government of the mass layoffs. Instead of notifying the government first 60 days... — read more
Transparency is Non-Existent
The biggest issue I am having with this layoff thing, is the absolutely lack of transparency they are giving us. What a failure on leaderships part and especially this new CEO. What a way to make your first real impact on the company — your... — read more
anyone else freaked out the team voice sent out?
I didn’t receive it but some people on my team did, wondering if this means i’m on the block for the morning or if it just random (and insanely tone deaf)
I’m really grateful I found this forum
The past few weeks (or even months) have been tough, but hearing from others who are going through the same thing has been oddly comforting. It helps to know I’m not the only one feeling this dread and uncertainty right now.
RTO vs layoffs
as a remote employee i’m surprised they haven’t asked all remote employees (yet) to return to office or resign as a first wave. that way they’d save $ with paying out severance. i know they have asked specific roles to do so but not yet company wide... — read more
Good vibes from a customer
Hi everyone, I'm sorry for what's happening this week. I hope Target doesn't just turn around and post those roles in India. Anyway, the top 10% of earners drive 50% of consumer spend. The other 90% are tapped out, and offshoring jobs definitely... — read more
It's Out | TII has received private invites for tomorrow
Seems like the mails went out at 4 pm!
What’s the first thing you’d do if you got laid off?
I know a lot of people will jump straight into applying, but I plan to take a week or two to clear my head and just breathe. None of this has been easy, and I think taking a little time to calm down and reset is important. But I don’t have a partner... — read more
Morale
I have to imagine that if we do survive that morale is going to be bankrupt here. I would rather have a job, but I hope people realize that they are very talented and we deserve better of our employer. Don’t settle for anything less. Let’s support... — read more
Meeting scheduled for Wednesday?
My leader has a meeting scheduled with the team on Wednesday for update on HQ changes. Does that mean we're safe from layoff?
How are people usually notified?
Is it an email, phone call, something else? I'm guessing since we're working from home, it's not a meeting, unless they call you in, which seems a bit too cruel even for this place. I'm sorry if this is common knowledge, but I'm new here and new to... — read more
A little fear
The truth is that a little fear is good (for us that have been so comfortable with Target) it’s helping us do something we might have not thought about doing. Looking outside of Target. This is not the Target I know anymore. For those of us in... — read more
2015 & 2025: A Company That Has Learned Nothing
Look back at the layoffs from 2015. The excuses are the same. Too many layers, too much inefficiency, too much redundancy, too slow with technology, costs out of control, and a business model in perpetual catch-up mode. The only thing certain about... — read more
PIP and some : TI leadership +TII PEs
PIP worst process, horrible HR mgmt.. Target needs to adapt to fast and simply this process. TII - leadership and PEs in TII Horrible, immature, cocky with zero substance, no INTEGRITY, no MORALS ,ZERO engineering and ZERO FOCUS in meetings... — read more
Don’t be mad.
The downfall at Target is certain. If you survive, find a new job ASAP. Here is the big issue. You’re all worried about Trump and thinking the Mexicans are stealing the jobs when in reality it’s happening in front of our faces. It’s the Indians... — read more
Severance question
If we get axed on Tuesday, our pay and benefits are through Jan 3. Anyone know what the severance package is? I’ve heard some say it’s 1 week paid for every year worked, others say 1 month paid for every year worked. And do we know if all of it is... — read more
Another di-k move.
Hey HQ, 1800 of you will be laid of next Tuesday. Have a good weekend but go ahead and don't worry about it, but we'll let you work from home. We will even make you work Monday without knowing. And thank you for everyone clapping and cheering for me... — read more
Why Tuesday?
Why do we find out Tuesday and not tomorrow ?
Poor Performers
I have noticed during my time here that HQ has a really high tolerance for poor performers. We definitely have a few in my area that just skate by and hardly put in any effort. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if they all survive Tuesday. Management... — read more
If you survive…
Just curious here. If you do end up surviving Tuesday, are you seriously considering leaving Target once you have something lined up? I have read several articles that companies usually see large resignations after a mass layoff.
If I get laid off…
I ain’t never stepping foot in a Target store again! 😂 Walmart here I return 🏃♂️💨
Roundel leadership NEEDS TO RESIGN
I truly hope Roundel leadership takes accountability for how this situation has been handled. As employees, we look for comfort, feedback, and — most importantly — transparency from our leaders. The continued silence and lack of communication leading... — read more
Just trying to understand
Can someone help me understand how laying off thousands of U.S. team members while backfilling roles with TII is supposed to help Target grow? We’re replacing people who understand our operations and culture with teams that, in many cases, aren’t... — read more
anyone know if site merch will be impacted?
i’m losing my mind.
How long until they start backfilling in TII?
If they haven’t been increasing headcount there already to trim here, I speculate they will start backfilling there eventually. I’ve seen it happen at other companies.
I’m stressed out of my mind
Even getting through next week won’t calm me down. We all know there are more cuts coming. And, swear to God, months of job hunting have only made me more depressed. Fingers crossed and good luck to everyone. Whatever happens to each of us, here’s... — read more
