Yeah, because hours have been cut to the point that stores can barely function! Leadership keeps telling us that sales were down last year (which is why hours are WAY down) and yet...Target's sales in 2015 rose 1.6% from a year earlier to $73.8 billion and operating profit rose about 37%
Lots of new CEOs do this to cheat the system. They get into the position and quickly slash spending like crazy in order to quickly increase profits. Shortly after, they cut and run (with a large fat bonus), then leave the company to sink. Cornell could be like this, because he's never stayed with a single company for more than a few years.His base salary more than doubled!

Yes, but his base pay still went up 50%.Most of the money was from stock options. When you're running a big company, you get that luxury.
That's a bit extreme, but profit rose by 37% which is impressive.Yes, but his base pay still went up 50%.
Yeah....but, how exactly did profits rise? Were people spending more money or were employees hours cut?That's a bit extreme, but profit rose by 37% which is impressive.
That is slightly more than a 100% increase in base pay.Cornell's base salary was $1.3 million, an increase from $595,000 in 2014.
Correct me if I'm wrong but I'm assuming that is includes hour cuts, of which there were a TON last year. This year, there are even more hour cuts going on... which will make Cornell look good next year as well. I almost want to start a betting pool on when this dude jumps ship with a golden parachute. Maybe next year, because we simply can't take much more in hour cuts.in 2015 ... operating profit rose about 37%
Whoops. Clearly I cannot math today.That is slightly more than a 100% increase in base pay.
