Target proud of Their Offshoring....Sorry about your empty bank account.

November 26th Target was bragging about all the great IT work they do in India. They were excited about doing even more IT work in India in 2014. 

India’s fantastic programming expertise would help them compete against Walmart and Amazon. 

While this story was being published 40,000,000 Target customers were getting their credit and debit cards stolen from the same shoddy Target software. 

Nothing enhances a consumers shopping experience like credit card theft.

My guess is target will be a lot quieter about their shoddy India coding going forward.

Next time you are in Target and swipe your credit card you can do it with confidence. Your bank account may soon be empty, but you will be comforted knowing how much money Target saved by offshoring their IT.

Happy shopping…..
