Totally mismanaged

Pros

The pay can be decent, but you really have to fight to get what you deserve unless you possess a low enough conscience to stoop to ridiculous politics.

Cons

Tons of politics - people in MN really suck to tell you the truth - You never know when you're offending them and they're passive-aggressive beyond belief.

Great Management Training

Pros

Target does a really great job of trying to accomodate their teams within reason. I worked for the company for 2+ years and thoroughly enjoyed my overall experience. They offer every other weekend off for their Management team, which is unheard of in retail. Get to directly effect the business on a day to day basis, and work with some great, interesting people.

Cons

ETL salaries are based on a 50 hour work week, and realistically you are working closer to 65 hrs a week. Some roles have far more difficult expectations, but same pay. As one other person pointed out, I saw some ETL's who were labeled as less valuable than others, and it is really hard to shake that label.
