Target reviews

The great concepts mentioned above are not always practiced, mainly due to the maturity level of senior management

Hardworkers are kept where they are, Target sees them as too vital to risk promoting and doing a poor job in a different position. They would rather hire from outside, and find someone through trial and error. If sales are slow, hours are cut. At times you may be the only person on the sales floor. When closing the store, the managers may make you stay 2-3 hours after your shift(1-2am sometimes). Pay raises are much smaller than similar retailers, so even though you start higher, after a year or two you are making less than you would have.
