Target reviews

Target does not offer any full time positions to its employees unless you are management! Most of the workers at my store work two jobs just to make ends meet because they can not survive off of the ten weekly hours that target provides. Even though you make decent pay the hours don't ad up. Management may play favorites as well. Their is no room for growth because Target hires young kids who are straight out of college with no retail experience to run it's stores, completely overlooking their dedicated and loyal employees who know their jobs inside out, and has worked for the company for years. Sadly only full time employees can get benefits, which is pretty much only management.

1. They pay very little to the team members that do the most work. 2. ETL's play favorites with team leads too much and let certain ones get away with more than others. 3. ETL's need to work on the floor more with their team. Spending too much time in TSC and the offices gives off a bad perception to the team. 4. They start off team leads who are brand new to the company way more than a team member that becomes a team lead. Example: at my store, started off a new TL at $18 just because they had a few years experience at another company. TM who started off on Flow had same amount of years of management experience with another company but only was given a raise up to $12. Why would they give a team lead who knows nothing about the way the company runs, more money than someone who has worked so hard for years with Target. Doesn't seem fair at all. 5. ETL's expect too much from minimum wage team members. While they get their giant paychecks for walking around and sitting at their desks, team members who work part time but leave every shift tired and sweaty, get $200-$400 to survive off of. Some with families to support. 6. Team Leads get paid for all national holidays no matter if they work that day or not, team members who work a certain amount of hours only get paid holiday pay for Thanksgiving and Christmas. 7. Target as a company makes so much money everyday, yet they cut so many corners to try and save money, that sometimes it makes it stressful to get your work done in time and with the few resources you have. Ex: cutting back on team leads and ETLs for certain departments in every store. 3 years ago, we would have 6 hard lines and 6 soft lines closers and now only have 1 in hard lines and 1 in soft lines every night. (and they wonder why the store sometimes doesn't look good the next morning.
