integrated product teams can have some good cohesion working towards a common goal

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

certain product areas have grown large and bloated and have become segmented out and the big picture is lost

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership has gone overboard promoting diversity. Promotion opportunities heavily favor minority individuals. If you are part of the majority, advancement will be more difficult.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Target's benefits do not stack up against many other large employers in the region as Target only cares to benchmark itself against other retail companies to save cost. Expect to pay higher health premiums and have lower bonus percentages.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

My best and most skilled coworkers have almost all left Target within a year and to backfill Target has been hiring more strictly focused on skillset and ignoring team chemistry fit, so now we have the dreaded smart jerks around polluting the open collaboration we once had
