Pros

The training, camaraderie, and recognition are unmatched. Expectations were high, but each member of the team was given the tools and support necessary to meet those expectations. Team members are challenged to think outside of the box and are required to work together as a team. Team Members are given many options to advance their training and knowledge with skills that will carry them through their careers with Target or with another company.

Cons

The wages were dispicable. Plan and simple. About half what I made taking the same job with another company.

Pros

Overall, for a retail store job, it's a very clean and professional environment to work in. The managers were very professional and fair and gave a lot of feedback. Employees are given a lot of responsibilities and privileges right away, and thus don't need to have managerial approval for little things like removing an item from a receipt or making price changes as a result of customer claims. For those looking to have a career at Target, the promotional opportunities were very apparent. Healthcare seemed relatively reasonable too, and I believe the only requirement was to work for six months.

Cons

There is very little flexibility for vacation time. Retail store pay is not to make a living on, except at the highest level.
