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.
