Target reviews

Never no cleaning products to clean cashier stations. My store had super Favoritism due to hiring friends of young right out of high school and pre college. Pushing Older folks ( over the age of 40) out. Belittling associates they did not know, acting like they were in charge, doing what ever they wanted. Not showing up for work and when they were there they didn't do anything, running around from place to place talking with friends. The rest of us "older" folks worked our butts off and we were the ones getting pushed out of this store! We were told we could not talk to other associates while the "group" of favorites just stood around and yacked all day to each other! It was bullying at it's finest. I was told to stand up straight, clean more, organize, smile more, talk to guests more, don't talk to guests, do this- NO don't do that! It was insane. Also I got " you are going to get written up for standing weird and its going on your permanent record forever!" What's that all about? Am I 10 years old? I can go on... Hours were all over the place. I had to Quit. 3 days a week with 8 hours a week. All the Mean-ness. No Training for other positions due to my age. Discrimination.

Most days were good but management really pushed the RedCard, there was a weekly goal and i absolutely hated it. They were more concerned with selling store cards than having their cashiers be decent human beings. I'd like to say I went above and beyond my cashier duties for guests but you were never recognized for it unless you contributed to the RedCard goal. This somewhat makes sense but being a 17 year old with my first job this really sucked and made me not want to go to work. I ended up quitting after 2.5 years because there was just so much pressure to sell a RedCard. Sorry not everyone is built for marketing. it made me super uncomfortable to keep asking guests about something that was advertised all over the store- if they want one, great, they want one, but i'm not going to keep asking, especially when the guest behind the current guest hears my sales pitch and shuts me down bc he knows i'm going to ask him about signing up for a RC and he CLEARLY doesn't want one. When i accepted the job, selling a RC was not really prioritized/emphasized as one of the main job functions. I tried my best but in the end, management said they would start cutting jobs so I left by choice.
