I read that uniforms designed by some goober are being released for stores, are they going to (try) make us wear uniforms? LOL
Target Together
Okay Target you still su-k and majority of your team members are overworked and over all the racism however you ki-led it this Target Together. The content from the leaders was the same old same old but the performances were a home run. How did... — read more
Wonderful, another reorg!
Because all the others have achieved so much, right?
Digital Product / Product Reorg?
Anyone hear anything about a digital product or broader product reorg? Theories on the entire product org moving under tech
Target Together
With morale being at an all time low, how’s everyone feeling about Target Together? Will everyone be able to fake it on our red shirts at Target Center and applaud the executives for 3 hours? Will be tough not to laugh while they pat themselves on... — read more
Quiet Layoffs in the Merch Org
Just as we kick off our 4 day RTO, leadership welcomed us back with multiple quiet layoffs in the merch… er.. commercial (what’s the name now…?) org.
Target Printing Services "Quite Layoffs"
What's going on here?
Return to office
I know everyone works differently and has their own preference for how they’re most productive—whether that’s remote, in-office, or a hybrid of the two. I’m one of those people who genuinely thrives working remotely, and I’ve proven that I can do my... — read more
For those who have successfully left and are thriving outside of TGT- what advice would you give us?
Starting to look heavily externally and here are some of my learnings so far. It’s a tough market. You better be applying to roles where it’s a 1:1, meaning you can definitely do that role or are very experienced. Unfortunately not the time for a... — read more
The mere fact that this Target layoff page still has lots of traction almost daily, says a lot about the company.
Post-2025 layoffs, it seems like at least once a week there’s a new post from people concerned about the direction of the company or about their own future and well-being within the company. I’m glad that this safe space exists so that we can... — read more
Broken Feedback Loops
I remember when Target was well known for solving internal problems quickly. It's been 2 years since I've had a skip level status. Most of my team didn't take the best team survey because they don't believe it works. The biggest problem on our team... — read more
Simplify The Organization
Has anyone heard about Target simplifying the organization in September?
New mess
Who’s fault is this new mess and how severe will the fallout be? What did you think of Cara’s email apology?
PIP Severance?
Do those put on PIPs receive severance benefits similar to a layoff situation?
Any news on layoff continuation?
Anything concrete?
My coworkers and I are treated like sh*t by catty leaders
What the title says. I see for example how much they pick on someone on our team, anlways giving them the impossible projects, steamrolling, not setting him up for success, dangling promotions that never come but expecting work done way above their... — read more
What is the chief AI officer actually going to do?
What is the purpose of their job? Track token usage and scold us if we use too much or not enough?
Of the 150 remote Merch who were told to move back to Mpls, how many did?
I’m curious what percentage actually took Cara up on the offer to uproot their lives and move to Minneapolis to serve their bullseye overlords
Current Leadership Mindset
After reading so many posts about toxicity, internal politics, work culture, terminating good employees and demotivation. I am curious as to what is the leadership mindset? Have the good leader beed fired too?
What is really going on?
How come Target is on a tear financially but yet people on here are so miserable? Our bonuses this year are going to be huge. Why aren’t more people happy? It seems like Target is making a complete comeback in a very short period of time.
HR Pyramid?
What is HR’s current RTO status? Has there been anything official communicated?
More Target Creative laid off today
Various roles within target creative were cut today with 60 days notice. Remember when people were proud to work for Target? Seems like a fever dream now
RTO Product
Anyone have any insight into if Product will be required for RTO? Me and a few team members are remote and I’m wondering if I should be worried.
Hour requirement?
One of my friends in merch told me there is a team who is being required to be there from 8 to 5 on RTO days. That was never a requirement before the pandemic and I’m wondering if that true for all of merch. I anticipate everyone will be on 3-4 days... — read more
Will RTO happen again?
I’m not within the merch org that was called for RTO back in April but wondering if there’s another planned RTO for all remaining remote workers at some point. Has anyone heard anything?
No one is safe
Nobody's safe. I've watched good people get cut, bad people stay, and the rules change every quarter. I've stopped believing in job security entirely.
HQ RTO (Starting Sep)
Summarizing all the recent RTO announcements I've seen: Merch/PIM/Sourcing: 4 days a week (RTO for remote) TES: 2 days a week Store Ops: 2 days a week Any other teams? Please no negativity just posting for visibility.
Anyone ever been given a true promotion as part of a re-org?
What happens if you don’t take it? Is it a laid off situation or voluntarily quit? I’m hearing this is happening in some pockets of the organization.
Is the escorting true?
New here, and I've heard that when people get laid off, they're immediately escorted out of the building. I can't believe that's true. It would be so disrespectful.
Target is well past being able to return to what it was during its "glory" years
I have had many great years working for Target but I think that Target is well past being able to return to what it was during its "glory" years. The culture has shifted in a negative way, well-respected leaders have moved on and there is more work... — read more
Time to go.
With today's announcement of four days in office, it's time for some of us to leave. Has anyone had luck finding remote positions?
What's coming next?
I keep wondering what the next round of changes will bring. More layoffs? Reduced hours? Title eliminations? Anyone have any insight?
Coming back to Target
I left Target HQ 3 years ago and really want to come back. Does Target generally hire previous employees if they left on good terms? Do you have an advantage in the hiring process?
Time to go?
Anyone have experience negotiating your exit from a HQ role? Not getting laid off. Leaving on your own terms when you and your leader agree the work has changed enough to not fit. Open roles are scarce for my intended trajectory.
Things have changed— drastically. Anyone else notice?
Anyone else fed up? No parameters or structure to our roles so we’ve been worked to the bone for the last few years and dealt with incredibly pushy and unprofessional attitudes and leaders in the name of “candor”. Movement is tough with limited... — read more
Return to work
I’m a remote tm in properties and I’m curious if there’s been any RTO coming that would impact me
Don’t ignore your investors!
