      Great place to gain internship experience; great program for intern development.

      Pros

      Friendly atmosphere, but at times can be over the top and fake or superficial. The internship program is a long standing one at Target and is really well developed. Target helps pay for hour housing, and provides solid training considering the internship is only ten weeks long. There is solid collaboration with cross-functional teams and your intern projects are meaningful. Overall, a good place to gain internship experience and a solid idea of a corporate atmosphere.

      Cons

      Overly stuffy, it seems like everyone is watching over everyone else's back. People have to always watch what they are saying or doing so as not to be looked upon negatively.

      Pros

      Good training program to start career. It is a big company with systems to get things moving.

      Cons

      A lot of meetings with contactors & offshore resources. Target relies a lot of development and supporting work from TCS and offshore resources. Employees in US are being laid off mainly for this reason. Long hours, and employees just another headcount.

      Don't be fooled by the happy people on the posters -- Neither fast, nor fun, nor friendly.

      Pros

      The work is challenging and there is always a different job to do if you're unhappy with you current position. Getting cross-trained is the best way to make your job more interesting and to make you more effective in your roles.

      Cons

      There have been major cutbacks due to declining sales. Management has a lack of sympathy for team members who are subject to the consequences of the major hours cuts. Morale has declined severely since 2005 as the company has made hours and team members more expendable.
