Business Outlook
Pros
Great culture, excellent advancement opportunities. Target looks for ways to move people into new positions. I was able to do 3 different roles in 2 years. Leadership skills are a very strong focus. Hiring and training is very focused on finding and developing future leaders of Target. Excellent relocation program as well. Target will buy your house if you can't sell it! Target is truly a meritocracy where if you do well, you will be promoted and challenged.
Cons
Minneapolis tough place to live for anyone from another state. Field organization does not have the same level of talent. Some poor managers can last a long time without any focus/action from Minneapolis.
