Pros

As an intern I am treated as an Executive Team Leader by team members as well as the other ETLs. I've been able to take ownership of my development and have constantly been kept aware of the future leadership opportunities within the company.

Cons

The feedback is difficult to manage in the beginning for some people. I was not used to gaining such honest feedback but I have now come to value it.

Pros

Target is a stable and growing company. They focus on leadership development for all levels of employees. One of the best things about Target is that you will always know where you stand with your performance. As a company they focus on a feedback culture and expect you to be able to receive and give performance feedback. They allow you to take the time to develop professionally. They have also made huge progress in making sure the benefits are right for the employees. They offer a wide array of benefits including discounts to other retailers.

Cons

The opportunities for advancement are available, however it is very biased. It is often based on having a cute and bubbly personality and not on experience or capabilities. As with any retailer, the schedule of a 50 hour work week and working holidays does not provide for the best work/life balance.
