Pros

I have worked for Target for 14 months now and have enjoyed working for the company. I enjoy the guest interaction day to day and the flexibility of not working a typical 9-5 Monday through Friday job. I like to be up and moving around as well and not sitting at a desk all day really seems to fit my personality as well. Target also seems to build a good culture of working together and really embraces the term "team member". Employees really become like a family and relationships are created that can last well into the future and of course the employee discount doesn't hurt either :)

Cons

The major downfall that I have with Target is the pay but also retail has never been known to pay great...at least at the lower level that is.

Pros

Great on the job training, career growth opportunities, and compensation.

Cons

Target is retail environment, and you need to know what you're getting into when you accept a job as management in a Target store. You will work nights (even overnight sometimes), weekends, and holidays. You will normally put in at least 50 hours a week, and it is a physically demanding job. There is not a lot of flexibility for work/life balance.

Pros

its a fun place but team members make it so, been to other stores to help and some team members were just bad so it depends on the store.

Cons

favoritism (well that depend on the store), managers quit all the time so is hard to stablish relations at stores and distribution center. Stores are sometime fair when it comes to time off and personal holidays or vacations. DC demand mandatory overtime and will fire you if you do not shown up or if you have a dotor's note. Some managers dont know what they are doing and find it easier to blame team than to take responsability of their actions. WILL recomend stores over distribution centers.
