Pros

I worked there throughout high school and college and it was a good job for that. Management is never that great, and they have to many managers in my opinion. The pay was good to start but raises are very terrible. Also, they let you transfer easily which is good for a college student.

Cons

Raises are not that great. Someone working there 5 years only makes a dollar more an hour than new hires. There is really no reason to perform at a high level because you get nothing in return. All the workers get paid the same yet many people don't work as hard as others. This results in some people doing double the work while others not really doing anything. Target has trouble getting good workers and lets poor performers linger too long.

Pros

If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

Cons

Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
