Pros

Flexible scheduling for home life and other social activities. Accomodate for time off if its asked for in a reasonable amount of time (2 weeks) and also helpful in emergencies.

Cons

Weekends are a necessity. At least a friday and saturday or saturday and sunday. Managers mostly only get every other weekend off.

Pros

THey have a great learning program for new students fresh out of college. There retention of employees and management is non heard of. I entered the company with 30 other college grads and i was the second to last to go. Its basically a revolving door and you are expected to work 80 hours a week on the down low while being salaried and there main words are your young you can handle it. I loved the opportunity fresh out of college. however now that i think about it, I would probably try to find something else that was better.

Cons

Like i said above they downsides of working for target was that you have no social life after a while. You are expected to work 80 hour days and because your young you should just deal with it. There is really no room for advancement since all the store managers are in there 50's and 60's and are pretty much holding stagnant till they retire. The store managers sit in there office all day and the only time you ever see them is when a district manager comes around or if something that might affect them is brought to their attention
