Pros

Flexible work schedule is great when raising a family and the benefits aren't too bad, but are declining.

Cons

Are on a quest to rid themselves of anyone who has been with the company any length of time. This is being done by frivolous job expectations and the ever changing best practices. Seem to only be hiring those in their 20's fresh out of college for management positions so career advancement for internals is non existant. While turnover used to be a focus area and kept to a minimum, the perception now is if they keep turning people over, no one will have a chance to be given any raises and while that will benefit their bottom line, it does nothing for guest service. Time off can be challenging to get as there is always some reason to not grant it, even though you may have the time on the books.

Pros

The people at Target are top notch. There is a great camaraderie between team members and everyone seems to want you to succeed.

Cons

There is a definite divide between the 'teams'. Being on the flow team seems to be looked down on, but that is usually overcome by being outgoing.

Pros

Great working environment. Very fast paced with plenty of opportunity to develop leadership qualities. Everyone who works at Target are fun to be around.

Cons

Long hours on the weekends. Sometimes days are very slow to the point where you aren't needed at the store.
