Pros

AP provides plenty of training and responsibilities, they are flexible on scheduling, and it can be a very fun job.

Cons

Standing at the door is pointless, everything else is pretty fun and sometimes challenging, but the door standing needs to go.

Pros

Nice People. Routine is the same. Easy to start working for the store. Some stores will give you autonomy and some stores will be really rigid. Stores are usually clean and up to date

Cons

The routine is the same. Retail during holidays is terrible. Management is always getting told to cut payroll. Raises are pretty minimal.

Pros

The pay is very good starting salary in comparison to other jobs fresh out of college. Target does develop you as a leader, and I believe I have grown in the time I have been there. If you work hard there is a lot of room for advancement, but only after 18-24 months.

Cons

If your store has opportunities expect to be working more of a 60 hour work week. Lots of college grads are picked up by Target but very few last. Target slaves their Executives because they do not give enough hourly payroll to run the business well. Leadership is inconsistent and the messages keep changing. In the end, it is good money, but there is no work-life-balance.
