Target Software Developer reviews

Working heavily with off shore teams. Many layers of non-contributors who are pulling the strings (even off shore). Team members should be empowered to get their job done without someone "higher up" saying no. Ratio of managers and "architects" to people who actually get the work done. Everyone can come up with ideas, we need ideas that can be executed on....today.

If you are a techie fresh out of college, do yourself a favor and do not work for retail companies like Target.. Everyone here is an architect and has little to no knowledge about technology.. You will be constantly bombarded with meaningless meetings whose outcome is usually nothing productive and most of your work will be outsourced to some company in India or Uruguay.. The work culture here is very bad. Most of the days I used to be the lone team member working. Everyone else would take a holiday at the pretext of WFH. If you are from a prestigious college with a great technical background, do not consider Target as your workplace option..
