Pros

You get a Team member discount.

Cons

-Raising team member pay then cutting hours to make up for it, which also means cutting benefits. -An overload of tasks with not nearly enough time and staff to get done. -Cuts corners all over the store to save payroll. -Execs don't help at all. They sit in their office most of the time or complain to your TL you're not working hard enough, which then your TL comes to you. -None of your previous raises carry over when they increase base pay. So at a certain point you'll make just pennies more than a brand new hire. On top of that, the amount you get for raises have been significantly reduced. Favoritism can influence raises as well. -Many male executives will use their status to influence younger, inexperienced females and try to groom them.

Pros

- decent salary - lots of resources due to scale of company - good vacation and PTO policies - flexibile WFH arrangements

Cons

- Most employees are "lifers" and have no experience outside of Target to bring to the table, very limited understanding of wider retail industry/trends - Be wary if you're a person of color or LGBTQ+, micro-agressions are very frequent. They don't mean harm but it's a company/department of mainly privileged white women from the Midwest—it will wear you down over time to witness how they handle DEI initiatives and conversations. - Things are hyper corporate, formal, and SLOW. Change/pivots come too late or not at all. Very siloed. - Have witnessed and heard stories of workplace bullying. Most teams are great but some are very toxic.
