Pros

10% discount on everything in store. Flexible schedule Easy to take time off Co-workers are fun to work with and make working at Target easier. Attractive benefits package

Cons

Incompetence of senior management. Management rotates in and out of store regularly and each new manager doesn't know what to do. Little to no recognition for performing above and beyond expectations, but will hound you every mistake you make. Pay is the same as every other box retailer, if not lower, but Target did coin the phrase "expect more, pay less." Raises are a joke, and only occur once a year. Most hourly team members get a raise of less than $.10 for their efforts. Little to no promotional opportunities unless you tell the STL you want to be with Target for life.

Pros

Some of the great things about working here are, Work/life balance, a decent benefits package for retail, and overall decent compensation.

Cons

Advancement opportunities are lacking, even if you are a Team Leader and have a degree it can be very hard to advance to an ETL position

Pros

The pay is probably one of the leaders in the retail industry. Things are in constant flux and demand being nimble to deal with the change. Overall the company is a great place to work for depending on what store you are in.

Cons

If you get a bad store then you are stuck and not allowed to move out of the store. There is limited communication regarding to career path.
