Pros

You get a discount. Some of the supervisors are amazing. Target has a nice atmosphere. They do community service projects.

Cons

-When I worked at Target, starbucks had just been built. I think they should've trained the team leaders about starbucks operations. All the baristas were new to target and starbucks. When something went wrong no one could help us. We would get scolded. We would get scolded by leaders who couldn't last two seconds in starbuck. They had a manager from another starbucks train us. She was suppose to be there for two weeks. She stopped coming, because she said it was crazy what they had us doing. You don't get overtime either.

Management & Stress: The work experience depends heavily on local store leadership. Understaffing and the pressure to hit strict metrics (like those in fulfillment or front-end tasks) can lead to burnout
