Pros
Pay is on or above what competitors will offer. Great benefits package, 401k, and vacation plan. On the whole, the people that work for Target are fun, and good to be a round, they will help make your time with the company enjoyable.
Cons
Work life balance is a phrase you will hear a lot, but never actually experience. Long hours are to be expected in retail, however you will find that the Executives who actually care will work far more hours, while others are simply allowed to skate by. Lately the focus has come off of Targets strategic advantages of guest service and focus on team, and the company has begun taking a cost-cut mentality to shave every penny.
