There were teams in which some were let go and some were kept. Isn't that discrimination? What was the reason to let some go and not others? It was clearly not performance based? Did everyone sign the paperwork and mail it in or are some people... — read more

Seems like you'd only need a fraction of HR to handle a fraction of the HQ population. Same with OE and recruiting. We need to recruit better, not more.

Impacted Target employees. Medica is an awful company to work for, if they are recruiting you, run as far away as you can. I'm an ex-Target employee affected by the layoff last year. I took a job at Medica Health Insurance and it's the worst career... — read more 

There were cuts this morning other than those in HR.

Layoffs to continue, the next round will be April 7th. Target Corp moved the layoffs that I had anticipated to happen on March 17th, to yesterday the 19th. I guess they don't like me spilling the beans.

15's and 17's seemed to have got hit hard. What about the outrageously over-paid PG19 and PG21 group? This is the group that allowed the company culture to rot from the inside out...and yet there is little accountability there. Many of them are... — read more

Like any large company, it's different in different areas. I also worked at Wells Fargo, and it was way more screwed up than what I've experienced at Target. I've worked for 6 different companies over the past 15 years, and I'd rank Target my 2nd... — read more

Know of 8 TM's in HR pyramid.

Minimum wage paid to go to $9 per hour for all workers in April - this is following recent pay hikes from other large retailers. Saw it on CNN this morning.

I was impacted on 3/10 and already have a new job - start on 4/1. Anyone else having any success? Interviews? Call backs? There's hope, folks.

If HR people at Target have any influence over the future layoffs over the next 2 years, it would be so great if they allowed people to volunteer. Other companies (including amazon) do this and I think it makes things more fair, especially for people... — read more

1000's of contractors stay, 1000's of employees located in India stay? Why would you not replace the contractors with the TM's you planned to layoff?

I was told a consulting firm decided on who was to be terminated? 20years of service, always scored over 80 on annual reviews, it would be nice if Target would commnicate the MATH used to calculate who was let go. At least let us understand after all... — read more

There were plenty laid off in 2014 and early this year who probably didn't get 3 months of pay PLUS years of service. My agreement included a fine ($10,000+) if I disclosed the terms of my "separation". What a slap in the face to the pre March 2015... — read more 

Brian may be trying to sell this "transformation" as being all about the guest, but it's really about the stock and the Board. That's why Black Hat Brian was hired. Don't get me wrong. Target had too many levels of management and there were all kinds... — read more
