[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of Target layoffs are happening. My niece was let go. She's been working at Target since 2020. She was one of 28 at her store.

She knows of similar layoffs at their nearby stores.

Target corporate has reduced payroll for her store every week since January. One week she only had 14 hours. The store she worked at also cut overnight stockers. Stocking is now mostly being done during the day by day associates.

She's sad she was let go but also relieved because she said it's been so stressful the past few months. Payroll was cut but corporate's expectations weren't cut. Stores were still being dinged for pick-up orders taking too long in both the associate picking the items and also the associates delivering them to the cars upon arrival. My niece said at one point she and the other pickers were picking 2-3 orders at one time as ordered by the manager so that the orders didn't get flagged for being stale (or whatever it is she called it that Target calls it).

God, it’s just crazy. This is of their own making. Just like Trump is willfully crashing the economy. If they are stupid, they need to fail. I really thought businesses like Target were going to save us. That businesses would do the right thing because consumers demanded it.

Let them be a warning to others.

Honestly, I should start a thread about boycotting Schwab. Insider trading while their customers lost $$. I’ll be leaving them this summer. They deserve to go to jail. [/quote]
