Pros

-Great pay. They pay $10-20k more than comparable positions at other retailers -Room to grow. I received three promotions in my five years. If they think you're worth their time, they'll invest in your development -Community Events are a great way to give back

Cons

-Work/life balance is horrid but this is retail -Benefits leave much to be desired -LOD shifts can take away from your work center's duties -They shove REDcard (Target's credit card) conversion quotas down your throat

Pros

Target is a great company overall. Working as an executive team leader at a store level you learn a lot about the company and operations. Management is great at majority of the stores and they really do care about you. The training teaches you everything you need to know about the job. There is always fellow ETL's around to help you if you need any help. Salary is also good for out of college person.

Cons

If you are not retail-oriented person this is not the job for you. This job requires a lot of energy and enthusiasm to perform the duties. Sometimes you can end up working 10-12 hours a day depending on the workload .

Pros

Amazing co-workers, simple enough system, most leaders are approachable if you have a problem, 95% good experience with customers - and a few rotten apples.

Cons

Scheduling can be difficult, if the computer or HR makes a mistake it's up to you to figure it out. Depending on your area, there is more expected of you than can rationally be finished in the time given.
