Pros

- Experience in a retail setting - The people you work with are usually hard working

Cons

- When working for a big box company like Target (and they are) you are easily replaced so... - Don't get sick, and I don't mean just a flu, I mean don't get hospitalized, you WILL be let go. - Don't stick around with them for too long, they will let you go as you move up in order to hir some one new who will do your job for cheaper pay. - Management treats their employees poorly, you are on the bottom of the totem pole and you won't be allowed to forget that.

Pros

If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

Cons

Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
