All areas? First I've heard. Or are you just talking India and TTS?

3282 why are you here if u don't want to get info

And ER vehicles? And Security Guards. Guys, give me an f-ing break.

Just asking...

Cuts everywhere at hq, India, TSS. Expect 10% of your coworkers to be gone tomorrow. Security guards are all lined up to walk people out.

What are your thoughts, I have a feeling that not more than 10 people are posting here. Maybe 50 more are lurking. Fairly small audience... Very narrow POV...

Re org announcement on Thursday

This time the operational aspect may be different ...rooms /cabs approach may get changed to something else..

Here's an idea...just wait and see what happens tomorrow. None of has control over it anyway.

Let's see a list of all impacted areas. And no "everywhere" or "all"...I want to see specifics. We went through the exact same thing last week and nothing happened!!!

Can you try to book a conf room, you should get a 'already booked response' from Exchange and it should tell you who has it booked (sometimes it tells you the meeting subject as well) - let us know if it's interesting...

Conference rooms have already been blocked off for it and meetings are being rescheduled last minute to free up the rooms. I've heard tomorrow is the day from a couple reliable sources as well. Do I hope it's wrong? Of course, but something is coming... — read more

Eyes wide shut I see...

Anonymous3202 MSP only impacted Distribution, Transportation and Global Trade area. It is not related to the .com area at all.

were you one of the BA's fired in Oct ? why were you trying to manage projects ? we heard business said TTS BAs in MSP did nothing.

I used to work in target.com and the issue wasn't one of PM control but one of experience in managing projects with multiple cross team dependencies. Before you get to the point where additional authority would help you need to be able to proactively... — read more 

Mpls people update

There are lot good people (execution expertise) but .com people get promoted more than rest of COE. People have become PPM to SDM in just 1.5 year with not much execution expertise ...bad performance evaluation approach ...not objective or based on... — read more

What areas does your source say will be impacted?

This source is reliable and a no non-sense person, who is straight forward always I don't think they have a personal gain in spreading this rumour... Ok if at all this is not a real date... Nothing to loose Let's wait and watch ....

This is my first post, I am recent college graduate and I joined TTS roughly 20 months ago. I like it here, I have good mentors and I learned a lot while here. So, aside from pay which can always be better, I cannot complain about much. Now, granted... — read more
