Pros

Competitive pay, generally friendly co-workers, very understanding regarding on-the-job mistakes, generous training schedule, reasonable willingness to change work schedule/availability, relaxed atmosphere without losing sight of business goals.

Cons

Difficult to move within the company - even laterally, meager annual raises (about $0.125/hr for entry-level team members), jargon-loaded culture sometimes difficult to understand.

Pros

Steady paycheck, you lead your own team, benefits are offered (but pricey), opportunities for you to develop your team with professional growth

Cons

Once a sales floor team leader, there is no further professional growth. The Targets in my area/group always hired from the outside and did not even post internal growth opportunities. They do not treat their Team Leaders fairly and sometimes make decisions based off seniority. Their expectations are constantly changing and their Executive Team Leader turnover was ridiculous while I was employed with the company.

Great Brand. Mostly nice people. Sharp executive management. Best customers. Great private label products. Management credibility high at the highest levels.

Cons

Thinking done either by executive management or by outside parties. Too many people doing too few things. Low pay and poor benefits.
