      great company on the decline

      Pros

      cool place to work with great reputation. In general the pay for lower level executives seems to be relatively competitive, specifically for recent 4 year college grads. Interaction with the public can be a lot of fun and the sheer volume of business and transactions is contiually stimulating. While some criticism is fair and very warranted Target still does have some great people to work with and for.

      Cons

      mediocre leadership and very poor HR strategy particularly locally. The political environment is a joke. Too many mediocre people are allowed to continue working with protection due to their prior connections rather than their ability, while others must struggle through without support.

      Pros

      The people are great. Everyone seems to be happy to come to work every day. Even though I expected a lot more as far as pay is concerned, the people that work at Target may be some of the best you will or could meet.

      Cons

      Retail. During this recession I would not advise any to take a retail position. Your livelihood is based on the consumer's likelness to shop at your store. How unfair is that? even though Target is hiring right now if the economy does not improve and this Holiday shopping season doesn't do exceptionally well I could see them beginning to lay off people.

      Target - A place for college students

      Pros

      If you need quick money, and you're in college. I came to work at Target because I needed extra money in college. It fit the bill, literally. I put about a 5 dollar bill in my pocket every hour and was then able to afford to go out drinking with my buddies on the weekend.

      Cons

      You won't really make it very far. I wouldn't recommend being a cashier as a long term career. Unless you really like to play with scanners.
