Pros

Great team environment. Great people, friendly, helpful. Can be a fun place to work. Discounts, some benefits, flexible schedule. You can work outrageous hours or very little hours. All depends on how much you want to work.

Cons

Have been working at Target for over 3 years and it has steadily gone downhill with the credit card hacking in December bringing on even more of the downward spiral. The pressure to push red cards is ridiculous. Hard to do with a straight face when we know the hacking continues to happen over and over again. They continue to put fresh out of college 22-25 year olds in positions of power. They may know metrics and the latest PowerPoint program, everything about sales forecasts and profit and loss but their people skills are shameful. Not a personal issue just a lack of life experience. It has been a constant battle of do more with less. Less people on a team, less equipment to do a job and less time to do it in. I am sure that corporate Target thinks they are safe from the fate of Sears, Penny's, Kmart but those of us in the trenches can see it unraveling and their standards continuing to drop.
