Pros

Great Culture Awesome Advancement Opportunities Good pay and benefits.

Cons

Work/life balance is not good. Leadership wants exempt managers to work 10 hours, but with not enough payroll hours it is not possible.

Pros

This position pushes you out of your comfort zone. You learn a holistic perspective of retail management/operations. You have to learn to analyze reports, manage teams, merchandise, handle guest situations, etc. Target has good training and is really focused on development. As an intern, you have the opportunity to interact with district leaders. Campus recruiting maintains good relationships with Target interns throughout the process.

Cons

The hours are the biggest downside. As an intern, you are capped at 40 hours a week, so you can't really begin to understand the hours that ETLs put in. Also, at times you feel like you are doing the exact same work as a team member. It really makes you think if you went to college to push tubs/zone areas/be a backup cashier, etc. Also, working at a store level really confines you to many corporate restrictions. There isn't much room to exercise creativity.

Pros

decent pay for the amount of work done, fun people to work with and good hours. Easy to take days off.

Cons

Too much expected to get done in a short amount of time. Less team members on the floor to help. Promoting those that are undeserving.
