Business outlook
Pros
Overall, for a retail store job, it's a very clean and professional environment to work in. The managers were very professional and fair and gave a lot of feedback. Employees are given a lot of responsibilities and privileges right away, and thus don't need to have managerial approval for little things like removing an item from a receipt or making price changes as a result of customer claims. For those looking to have a career at Target, the promotional opportunities were very apparent. Healthcare seemed relatively reasonable too, and I believe the only requirement was to work for six months.
Cons
There is very little flexibility for vacation time. Retail store pay is not to make a living on, except at the highest level.
