Pros

Target is an organization with some of the sharpest minds in the business. In my particular situation the company has been generous with compensation and challenging assignments

Cons

There is an extreme disconnect between between executive store leadership and senior management at the district and group levels. Resources by way of knowledge and support have been few and far between in my current assignment. I work 12-15 hours a day more days out of the month than not and it has not been unheard of for me to work a 19 hour day to make sure that my hourly team leaders and team members have what they need to be successful. There is little to no recognition for the amount of time and sacrifice ETLs put in and at the end of the day there are mounds of reports, business reviews, and the like to complete...really?

Pros

Diversity, reputation, great people who work there. Good products, fair prices, friendly people who shop. Decent benefits, Pension plan, 5% company match 401k

Cons

Unfortunately you have to be the type of person who brown noses constantly to get anywhere. Promotions are not based upon the quality of work, but who you know, and whos butt did you kiss yesterday, today, and who are you going to kiss tomorrow.

Pros

You get to help people and you get to do tasks that involve thinking. You can also learn the names of different medications and what they are used for relating to which illness they treat.

Cons

Some of the customers are the type of people that get extremely angry if you make them wait for a few extra minutes.
