I don't mind the post from TTS ENG. At least he or she called it out as rumor only. My annoyance is with those who speak with absolute certainty, and are really just speculating.

No one on here has credibility to begin with. I don't either. You guys don't even know if I work for Target or I'm just trolling.

You just lost all credibility

Infrastructure and Support are

If BTT, etc are safe...who is on the chopping block?

With the move to TNC starting Feb 28th for the first wave, Target has to notify people of the move a certain number of dates before. So, the rumor is that layoffs were pushed back, but only a week and will be 1/22. I have heard BTT and that... — read more 

I know you think Indios is the center of the galaxy, but it is 3 pm in Minneapolis. You go away.

All is good, it's 2 a.m. in India, so @"it has started" please go away

We've all heard of the boy who cried wolf. We're under rumor fatigue/lie fatigue enough already.

We were all just brought into a room. My whole team for support. Told we are done. Ugh. Going home now.

Can someone paraphrase what was said in the speech? IN the mean time you can appreciate his golfing skills here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVq6Zc8AxYQ

you and your Target manager who will approve your timesheet both are busy reading posts on this forum. So enjoy. Hehehehehehehe !

feeling refreshed reading this page. keep going :)

They hired 3 more DM? Not promoted anyone from existing folks on the ground ?

Testing Coe is the most efficient COE in Target India, that is why they have recurited 3 more DM last week :) :) :)

Also wait for announcement on TCS or Infy buying target india. Then you will know what is real meaning of "Work". They will kick your ass and get sh!t done unlike your 2 hour working today (cab reaches at 9:15, then tea, e-mail & FB checking, lunch... — read more 

The approach is confirmed, optimize operation model will become new mantra for Target

Anonymous2919 - I am in build COE. It is obvious you are in test coe. cant stop laughing at your comment that test coe and TCS does all the work. Most of the test coe folks are busy on facebook posting inspirational stuff. Target need to retain only... — read more 

Which coe you belong to ,tell us and let us believe at least that CoE works in Target India :) :). PM Coe, PMC are sitting idel without project / portfolio. Testing coe, TCS do all the execution.Tech Coe, vendor developer are spreading every where... — read more 

Optimize business model , definitely lay off will also be part of optimization. That is nothing but a fancy way of packaging that. Those fools who still believe that there is no layoff, all the best to them.

Heard from my Manager that TTS has something called as "optimize operation model" as some TTS strategy for 2014 which maps to some Target Business goals

He never mentioned anything on Layoff but mentioned on TTS business goals mapping to Strategy for 2014 will be shared in few weeks.

I have been reading so many posts, frustrations, blame leaders, teams, vendors etc. Why dont you all just update your resume and go look for a job ? have you all become way too comfortable in Target doing nothing (or little) for last few months... — read more 

... that there were no posts during Target India hours? No mentions of Navneet's talk? Strange.

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"...

That's the dumbest thing I have heard so far

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

To see grown up adults shi**ing their pants

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 

Good one! LMAO

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.
