Pros

Love the team I'm on. Great people and talent around me. Work life balance is great (this is area dependent). Variety of work.

Cons

Too many layers of management. Confusing and constantly changing business processes that are usually not very well documented. Working with Target India is a nightmare. People who are more outgoing will always get promoted ahead of those who are more talented, but more introverted.

Pros

Target has some smart young folks working for them. Their management tends to be thoughtful without being overbearing, although sometimes they can be rough around the edges.

Cons

Like any company, you'll have managers who have been there forever and are difficult to work with because they will never leave or never listen. Retail also presents the typical "working with people" problems, although Target is less onerous than most because they really encourage you to be on the customers side and do not penalize you if you're trying to do the right thing.

Pros

Great company and great best practice

Cons

They don't promote from within. If you have a degree never accept a position lower then salary you will never move up
