Pros

The best reasons for working at Target are lots of room for advancement. As a manager, you also get every other weekend off. That is good in the retail business. Target is also a fast, fun and friendly place to work. The management pay is also very good. I also like wearing the comfortable clothing. You also get a 10% employee discount. And of course the huge variety of employees makes it a great place to work. I also like the fact that our name tags only have our first name on the badge and that their our no titles on it.

Cons

Some of the downsides would be working every other weekend. It would be really nice to have all weekends off, but reality is that it is retail. The late hours is also a downside. There are times when you would work until 1 a.m. You can also get lost in the huge amount of employees a store has. A single Super Target store can have 300-400 employees.

Pros

It is an easy job for the most part. I would recommend it for anyone in high school or college. Hours are flexible and the pay is decent if you're young.

Cons

The management does not listen to front line employees who KNOW what's happening in the store. Front line employees, most often, could make better, more informed decisions on how to run the store. I was also talked down to even though I was at least 6 months senior to my supervisor, who was ill-equipped and unfit to even roam the store.
