We all know still there is lot of redundancy in TTS and transformation is continuous improvement process.. So, when is the next round of layoffs in TTS.... At least there should be one focussed round for KMG and above ...

The layoffs have now run their course so there is no further information to be gained at this site. Thank you everyone for your participation

The best post today had to be: "For the love of GOD give it a rest with the cheap humor. Over 200 real people were laid off today. They merit support and understanding. Others are still quite anxious, skip the I'm so cute I'm so funny BS for at least... — read more

Can't really explain the who or whys. But for those left we can at least now focus on what our new roles and teams are going to be and move on. This foing nothing at work has been miserable.

Whether these thousands of layoffs are the right thing or not, what's certain is that Target is no longer an employer of choice. Only been here for 2 years, but family, friends and old coworkers used to ooo/ahh when I talked about Target. Now they... — read more 

Any takers?

One bonus payment at the time. One at the time...

I'm a former TTSer and just wondering...I read the Strib article that stated mostly TTS Business Analyst and TTS Project Managers were let go. However, many people I've heard from who were let go are Middle Management (KMG). Any insights from anyone?

As like me many were surprised by going through the message from MM and Navneet as they both called out the current reductions in TTS were part of ongoing transition and clearly stated "The changes involved reducing several layers within the... — read more 

It looks like all the hardworking people in TI are let go and junk , non performer still remains intact, ie FFF champion,initiative champions , process champions and so on. . Guys who were let go should not feel disappointed as they have have come... — read more 

Very low value add anyway

All the names that I heard were hard workers and work dedicated people... All managers who self centred, never care for their team or Target are retained.. I got to know that decisions are based on survey and inpit fron managers. Its so stupid. Even... — read more 

Can someone summarize what happened today as it relates to layoffs (conflicting news on the web)? I left during the big March purge. I wish you all the best.

Minneapolis - After a year in office, CEO Brian Cornell has announced in a bold move that the entire C-Level has been purged. "We were simply spending too much money on people who do nothing. It's time we transform what happens at the top of this... — read more 

I was let go today and getting mixed feelings on the impact. Quickly realized some friends suddenly stopped speaking and while some suddenly started coming for help. It was pretty clear to me that this was NOT based on any business reasons while... — read more

Despite all of the complaints about leadership (or lack thereof) on this site, lets all make sure to cheer for our wonderful, caring leaders at the national sales meeting. I expect to hear all of you scream like teenage girls for Hannah Montana (like... — read more 

That I'm going to be still at Target, d*mn it. The thought of working with this leadership team to figure out next steps is almost unbearable.

TTS whining about the non-technical people is just self serving blame shifting. The non technical people didn't hire themselves, they filled a void because TTS From the top to the lowest jr engineer couldn't make a sound business decision if their... — read more 

So the main problem that the Target leadership team is facing right now is, with so many layoffs done already and upcoming, who are they going to blame for the problems tomorrow?

Like BI Eng.Mgr, BI Lead, BI SR.Eng etc

2 days till lift off for TTS transformation.

I just wanted to provide a note of encouragement ahead of what could be a pretty tough week in TTS. I was laid off from Target in March, and it was the best thing that could have happened to me. I am now doing the same job for another company, I am... — read more
