Pros

From my personal experience, it was a fun, clean environment to work in. Flexible work schedule (for team members). Hourly employees ALWAYS get their required breaks and lunches (15 min. paid break for every 4 hrs worked, 30 min. unpaid lunch for every 6 hrs). Tasks were repetitive, but for the most part easy. Good benefits (for retail).

Cons

Low pay for hourly employees. Tiny raises, only given annually. Difficult, but not impossible, to promote without transferring. Hours vary from week to week (some weeks you'll get 30...others you'll get 10).

Pros

While working at Target, I got free food all of the time. The pay wasn't too great, but it was filled with other youngsters like myself and the 10% discount was used all of the time.

Cons

The pay was not very good, there aren't any real benefits for the future and being forced to ask people if they wanted to sign up for a TargetCard sucked.

Pros

Everyone was friendly. They only hired competent and friendly managers so there was no discriminating or poor treatment towards other employees. The work schedule is very flexible. Raises were very good compared to other employers.

Cons

Promotion is difficult to get unless you are a bubbly person and VERY talkative. Our store always hired/promoted these kinds of people but in the end they were fired or demoted due to incompentency or not being able to keep up with the workload.
