Target is always moving forward and is committed to community, making it a great place to contribute as more than just a job.

In-store management can have severely unrealistic expectations, and certain in-store cultures do not align with the overall corporate goals.

Pros

Weekends off, the ability to stay within a visual role instead of being pulled in other directions.

Cons

Guests often shop the store hard so it is difficult to maintain a brand store especially from a visual perspective.

Pros

Friendly work environment, love the team. Being VM is pretty fun, especially when I get to create my own looks or remerchandise an area. The pay is great. It’s good experience, especially if it’s your first leadership position. There are benefits available and a pretty nice set schedule, although you do have to work one night a week and every other weekend. Target is also very flexible about giving days off.

Cons

I do not always get a chance to do my own workload because I end up pushing truck or covering for other positions, sometimes several days a week. I don’t mind this, but I still have a large workload of my own and I feel like it often gets treated like it doesn’t matter that much, so I end up scrambling to finish and sometimes I simply can’t. Constantly revolving management, which can start to feel a bit overwhelming, because depending on my ETL/STL’s work style, there can be a shift in focus and morale in the entire store. Lack of freedom. We used to be able to dress mannequins and play around how we wanted. Now we must follow the book until the styles in it are gone.
