Pros

The company really does try to make the shopping experience the best for the consumer or "guest". They have a well organized back room compared to the other 3 retailers I've worked for. They also have a great way to locate and stock merchandise on the shelves.

Cons

I took the job to get "in the door" with hopes of being promoted especially with a 4 yr degree and some prior management experience. I was told I didn't have enough "Target" experience for the lead position. I can"t learn more "Target" knowledge if they keep me in the exact same place, nevermind that I have already been "managing" the other new employees since my 2nd week. I understand that because I have only been with the company for 4 months that I cannot possess all the knowledge I should but apparently I have managed to pick up a few things in that time. If you who are reading this are uncertain of my competence, you should continue to read my advice to management which I can almost guarantee nobody in management will read.

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.
