Pros

Usually a fun place to work, management works with your personal life and other obligations, and you are given the opportunity to cross-train in other areas of the store to pick up a couple more hours a paycheck.

Cons

Target tends to terminate employees for simple violations at times, most of time violations not intentional. They often do this to stay within their store budget and district objectives. This is a good explanation as to why Target persuades or indoctrinates their employees to not join a union. I recommend you join a union or not work for Target to avoid future conflict. Target also is tight on their hours as well and it is not uncommon to be scheduled only 4 hours a day at some locations, again so management can meet their budget objectives and receive their bonus.

Pros

The company really does try to make the shopping experience the best for the consumer or "guest". They have a well organized back room compared to the other 3 retailers I've worked for. They also have a great way to locate and stock merchandise on the shelves.

Cons

I took the job to get "in the door" with hopes of being promoted especially with a 4 yr degree and some prior management experience. I was told I didn't have enough "Target" experience for the lead position. I can"t learn more "Target" knowledge if they keep me in the exact same place, nevermind that I have already been "managing" the other new employees since my 2nd week. I understand that because I have only been with the company for 4 months that I cannot possess all the knowledge I should but apparently I have managed to pick up a few things in that time. If you who are reading this are uncertain of my competence, you should continue to read my advice to management which I can almost guarantee nobody in management will read.
