Pros

Good bargains Fun people at work Convenient shopping Training resources Entry level career Other employers love to hire former employees of Target because of high standards

Cons

Opportunities for career advancement Politics Excessive store visits from district and regional management Bonus structure Too many LOD shifts (Leader on duty) Favoritisms Work Life Balance Workload for management is unrealistic Only hold the people they don't like accountable promotions are based on looks, people you know. Not based on ability to do the job. If you have prior experience it does not matter. Someone with less or no experience will be promoted and you will not be considered.

Pros

I worked here while I was in college. They were very flexible with my scheduling and I had a great experience working there.

Cons

At times I was scheduled later shifts, but this had more to do with my availability. Overall, I was satisfied with how scheduling was done.

Pros

The workforce is young and enthusiastic. We get a discount on purchases. There is opportunity for promotion. They are flexible with time off.

Cons

Pay grade is terrible. Opportunity for promotion is only within the store. Nobody cares about the store, including the customers, so the place is constantly a mess. Some managers are clueless about the running of the store and are really only interested in the area that they were promoted from.
