Professor Paul Vaaler was interviewed by WCCO TV's Kate Raddatz for commentary on Target's September 1, 2015, announcement that it was laying off 235 information technology project managers and analysts in Minneapolis and another 40 in Bangalore, India. Vaaler linked this round of lay-offs to Target CEO Brian Cornell's strategy for reducing headcount in Target's headquarters operation and new Target CIO Mike McNamara's interest in re-vamping Target IT capabilities.
