Pros

they let you take the day off if you want it overnight. but there are very few upsides. umm i guess 10% off and oh they will never fire you if you dont steal.

Cons

They treat us like trash because they know no one from upper mangement is there and we work overnight so it's harder you to hold anyone accountable. They hired me full time and i havent seen even part time hours above 25 in over a year. plus i know alot of people who they only schedule one or two days to a week. they dont care or anything. they wont fire you so they will try to make you quite by giving you one day a week hoping you will quite. and they have a habit of polishing and stripping the floor overnight with you locked in and gas for the polisher and other moterized things being run at the same time. just overall dont work there over night.

Pros

I love working for target because it is a fast fun friendly place to work. Target is flexiable when you need to off .

Cons

The only promble I had so for is that two times I have apply for a team leader position, and I have been denied two because they said I didnt have enough courge , which I feel I should be given a chances becasue two we didnt have a team leader for my department and I was the one who was leading the team.

Pros

Flexible shifts. Decent benefits package for full-time workers. Social environment with other team members is enjoyable. Management tries to maintain morale.

Cons

Can be difficult if seeking full-time work, no hours are guaranteed at all unless you are a team lead or higher position. Multi-tasking until your brain explodes. Don't do anything to get on management's bad side! Political correctness and job culture are taken to such an extreme, that it feels like you are being beaten over the head with it. Almost always feels severly understaffed at busier stores. This creates an atmosphere like you are always trying to finish all of your tasks, but always seem unable to. Sometimes different team leads or execs give conflicting orders that create confusion and stress. If management is unhappy with your performance you are not always given concrete feedback until it is too late and you are "written up."
