Pros

Target is a premier retailer to work for. I have worked for several retailers and you will not find another retailer like Target. They really go above and beyond to take care of their team.

Cons

Politics. There is a political aspect within most companies, but more so in Target than I have seen in others. Promotions are not based on performance, rather, it is more of who you know and much of it is based on diversity. If you are a white male or even a white female, your chances of promotion are greatly decreased, no matter your performance or contribution to the company.

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.
