Pros

The Discount. Really that's about it.

Cons

They want you to be available for all shifts. Will often try to work you for 6 hours at a time. That means you have to be willing to work 6-7 days a week to make any money. The work is repetitive and menial. Your boss puts you under tremendous amounts of pressure to get the job done, looking the other way if you take short cuts. But once the bosses boss finds out, prepare to be lectured on the Target way to do things, and how you shouldn't take short cuts.

Pros

If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

Cons

Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
