Pros

Decent salary for a new college grad(60k)

Cons

60+ hour work weeks (usually in the 70s) Awful work/life balance Retail Management isn't a marketable skillset (you could only work for all the retail stores - Walmart, Kmart, etc, which is the same as Target) and no other job industry cares about your management experience. It doesn't translate. Career trajectory is awful. Even the head store manager is still working 60+ hours/week and zero work/life balance despite being with the company 7+ years.

Pros

Pay and growth opportunities. Thorough training when you are new to the company.

Cons

Work-life balance isn't the best because you are required to close quite a bit while also working your dayside shifts.
