Pros

Sample sale Cheap coffee..in fact all the catering team are lovely.

Cons

Don't kid yourself...it's not the "opportunity of a lifetime to work in a progessive, iconic retail business". The culture is horrific, team members are set up to fail. The staff turnover is so high (over 40%) there is no job history to learn from. Advice from senior management included "starting a job at Target is like being chased through the forest by a man with a gun, and you're blind folded" and "welcome to Target, you'll spend the first 3 months crying". Worst. Job. Ever.

Pays lots of money and it is really fun to work in a great environment with lots of people.

There aren't a lot of cons to working at target. The only really downside is that some of the buyers are a little rude.

Pros

Teaches the importance of teamwork.... There is always someone who knows a bit more than you do and can help in any situation... I have found that my hours are tailored as much as possible to my lifestyle....

Cons

I have experienced some managers who are not really people persons..... The job gets done but the staff can feel as though they know nothing...
