Good company to present a risk assessment for Michael.
I previously worked for the company
in between Security jobs and I have to say that employee theft is definitely an issue there. There tended to be a lack of physical security which was competent and effective in preventing misdemeanor theft at my store. The security measures taken by the company were also lacking due to upper management refusing to allocate more resources to security during my time there. Target is indeed concerned about the bottom line, and like many other companies, chooses to underfund their Security platform. Ironically enough, the Target store where I worked at has increased funding to their Security program in the past year, and now I see them committing more and more resources to catching and/or preventing misdemeanor theft at the store. It is unfortunate though, because I know that should revenue fall for the company and store, they will be willing to scale back their security program without much fuss.
