Pros

Lot of Benefits options, TT, gym, free food, casual dress week, foosball, Fast recruitment process, you just make friends with the sr mgmt and you are set.

Cons

Heavy politics, you only need to "talk" and not work to get promoted. India doesn't have any say. All decisions are made in US. Too many manages and less individual contributers.

Pros

I enjoy the team of people that I work with! And for retail, having every other weekend off is nice.

Cons

Outrageous workload with minimal resources to complete the work. The company standard is one set of numbers and even if you meet those expectations it still isn't good enough. Last year I exceeded all company metrics significantly and received a review of only effective. This company used to care about a team member's work life balance...not anymore! I am required to work 50 hours but have to put in at least 60-70 hours easily per week to get the job done. UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS for the Salesfloor/Guest Experience role...when you walk in the front door at a Target store, EVERYTHING you can SEE is the responsibility for the Salesfloor/GE Executive Team Leader. And it has proven very hard to achieve a reasonably sized bonus based on the companies hardships.

Extreme payroll constraints make the job challenging. Very micromanaged by corporate. Not a lot of entrepreneurial spirit.
