Pros

The company is well known and has a good retirement package.

Cons

Lack of work life balance you are scheduled 50+ hours a week with rotating weekends off. This means that every other week you work 6 days in a row. No diversity from the Executive team leader and above, there are lots of people of color as hourly team members, but not in the management levels. You don't have a divers peer group to relate to. Incompetent store team leaders, it takes forever to move out a bottom performing store team leader. Mine has been at the store for 3 years and has had almost 300% turnover amongst his ETLs the managers that report directly to him. The majority of those have left due to his lack of leadership, respect and abiltity to get them developed and promoted. Pay is all over the board, people of color and woman are compensated much less than their white male peers. I have a peer that has been with the company just as long who makes $12K more than me and is running a red workcenter, my perception is that he is white.

Pros

It can be a good place to work. The air conditioner is wonderful. The employees are great.

Cons

No one cares about you as a person. They group everyone togrther. If you haven't got a college degree or if you are over a certain age then they push you out the door, if you are in management. I thought I could be with this company and retire with it, but it's a shame that the people that have been with the company for years, that helped grow the company need to go . They bring these people in who know nothing about retail and just because they have the college degree. That is I suppose to be the most important thing for the company. What a shame. I use to live, breathe, and eat Target. Now I don't even shop there and I discourage others from shopping there as well.
