Pros

Friendly team members help each other out Upbeat, inclusive work culture Break periods make it easier on your feet Guests are treated very well Clean, well maintained stores Great seasonal job

Cons

Some departments are given too much work and too little time to do it. Target is anti-union and triest to pursuade workers they should be, too. Few people stay longer than five years Management / HR distrusts employees - almost obsessed with loss prevention Heavy workload makes workers tired - a dangerous condition when working with slicers! Register training is minimal and poorly organized.
