Perhaps quietly and a few people at a time is the mode they are using to continue to purge while staying under the radar? That and not backfilling the people in TTS that are leaving in droves now.
September TL Cuts

Be wary managers with no direct reports
Heard a rumor going around at HQ that those with manager titles but no actual direct reports should have reason to be concerned in the future when additional layoffs are announced. Anybody else hear or confirm the same thing?

Sorry! Yeah only because they got caught.
I was let go in January from this horrible company through the job cuts. You know "Outsourcing" to make the company even less secure. The only thing Target is sorry about in this matter, is THAT THEY GOT CAUGHT. The company is a PR nightmare. IT... — read more
Shipment of jobs to India
I don't give a f_ _k about anybody in India who is employed by Target. This is a U.S. company. They never should have off-shored jobs. And now that process is coming back to bite Target in the ass. Once Target has a store in Bangalore, and the people... — read more

SAP Team Downsizing 2014 and 2015
Anyone knows if Target will be downsizing our SAP team in 2014 or 2015? I just joined after a fairly long job search and would hate to have to leave at this point.
