... that there were no posts during Target India hours? No mentions of Navneet's talk? Strange.
FY2014
Nothing is off the books for 2014 if you do layoffs now. Those people will stay on the books for some time due to severance packages, vacation accrued, and health insurance. It's fine to say "Well maybe it's because of this ...." but why does... — read more

It's "You're stupid"...
@End of January rationale
That's the dumbest thing I have heard so far
End of January rationale
It will happen in the next two weeks so the company can: 1) get expense off of the books by end of the fiscal year 2) spike the stock price before the Q4 earnings come out

Really? You have horrible taste. #lamesauce
Hilarious
To see grown up adults shi**ing their pants
Re-organization
the re-organization would happen. whether people would be layed off because of re-organization would have to be seen. My director has openly said 20% reduction in resources by 2014 on the projects cost. So if not enough projects for all then layoff... — read more
@TNC
Good one! LMAO
TNC
Target admins have voted to delay the move to TNC. Due to this, they will be dismantling the newly built wings and selling off the scrap for 35 cents per pound.
I heard the following about Target Canada
Their cafeteria is only going to server hot dogs, rice and marshmallow creams for lunch.
Posting internal info to this site?
Your stupid
@Rumors Heard at TCW
Really? Cafeteria to order less food in 2014. Hmm. Perhaps because the first wave of TTS is moving to TNC starting in February? C'mon, please connect the dots and exercise some critical thinking before posting crap like this. Thank you.
@"Get Back To Work"
To those who post "get back to work"...in order to even get to this site, you yourselves have googled "Target layoffs" or similar. lol.
Rumors Heard at TCW
I left Target recently, FRS to be a little more specific. At the time there was a rumor that the cafeteria DT was told not to order as much food to start off 2014 b/c there would be less TM in the building at some point soon. I know that's not very... — read more
Stop whining and complaining
If you have work dont worry about layoffs. If you dont, ask your manager for work. If he/she doesnt give you any you are better off finding another job anyways. Either way stop whining, complaining and behaving like a bunch of losers. Just in case... — read more

folks, been in target almost half a decade and they do recognize talent and to endorse ur hard work. target is not going to blow any of them. most people active here are either warming up ur seats or talking bull shit in the meetings or both who... — read more
@anon2865
While your generalities are true, your title is very specific (end of the month). I would challenge posters to at least indicate what kind of reliable source you have - HR, Director or above, or KMG/below. You should be able to do that without... — read more
Not that I believe any of this anymore....
But which areas are being laid off? Are we sticking with TTS & Target India, as rumored all along or are there more departments involved? Is it 10% across the board? Are any areas safe? Not that I'll believe you. Just interested in what the so-called... — read more

I'm not sure if anyone is denying layoffs will happen. We wouldn't be on this site if we were that confident and secure about our jobs. And this coming from the guy who wrote the "Someday" post. The way that the rumors were being conveyed on and off... — read more
It will happen before end of month
Any one of you who does not believe layoffs are a high likelihood is in total, utter denial right now. The performance of the company's traditional bricks and mortar business is being absolutely crushed by the competition...and now on top of that it... — read more
Wow. Just Wow.
While I ignored the 99% of general ranting and obviously non-informed posters, some of the comments (anon2647, anon2171) here were so specific (date, depts, meeting times) and were absolute with their certainty. Who does that without actually... — read more
Hey guess what....
Egg on your face
hope all is good!
This is a really good site for you guys to share your info! :-) I do not work at Target, but I found this site while looking through the recent data breach news! I hope you guys come through this okay and that no jobs are lost! :-) Just wanted to... — read more
FACTS post
This is the right approach. Be aware of facts and do not try to extrapolate them into a specific imaginary when and how. Draw your own conclusions. It's hard to do, but you need to tune out the 99% of posts on here that are full of sh!t.
Call me crazy
Well, there is at least four 'not in the right mind' people from target who liked it. Also, if you just Google it there is over a hundred likes for this crappy site as well http://www.google.com/search?q="thelayoff.com"+site%3Afacebook.com - finally... — read more
Who in their right mind would Tweet/Like this site?
Think about it.
Pathetic, at best
I do not think that more than a dozen people read and post here. I never heard about this thread before, landed here randomly via Google... Hundreds are laid off and thousands more will be, three tweets and four Facebook shares tell you everything... — read more
Neighbors
I can bet that Anonymous2822 and Anonymous2827 are sitting next to each other, probably a cube or two away. They probably just saw each other by the water cooler and gently nodded their heads while going back to their cubes and layoff.com
Popular site due to silence ....
If HR & exec level doesn't monitor this and other sites then they're ineffective or incompetent. That said, is it a good corporate strategy to ignore "team members' and others requests for information? These folks obviously didn't pay attention to... — read more
Then lets look at the FACTS
Fact 1: Gregg told investors, with Mulligan reiterating, that Target is evaluating its corporate structure and will be reorganizing to eliminate redundancies. He FLAT OUT SAID THAT. Fact 2: Target removed "$100B in sales by 2017" and replaced it with... — read more
I'm Anonymous2822
I didn't think to include arguments like the ones that followed mine because it never occurred to me this mindset existed. The layoff is definitely happening because everyone thinks it is? I believe the Jan 15 date because I heard it from team... — read more

You seem to think your post is of substance when there is none at all. You start with a circular argument and end by doubting the credibility of the sources in the first place. So I don't even know which side you're on. People: think critically... — read more
