Pros

Resume builder. Target is one of the most successful businesses in the US and you are exposed to a lot of processes in a short period of time.

Cons

NO work/life balance. If you are married or value any personal time this is not the job for you. You WILL be in the office 60-70 hrs per week, every week. The Business Analyst position also has the wrong title. It should be Inventory Management Analyst because that is your main responsibility. The position is very high turnover and out of the class you join with (30 or so people), 25% of the class will be fired or quit within the first 3 months. You either fit in 100% or you leave. Also, be prepared to buy a pricey wardrobe because if you don’t look like an Express model you may be on your way out the door. Also, have the most excited/bubbly personality or you will be told you are not passionate about the job and may be asked if this is the "right fit" for you.

Pros

Pay is decent and you don't need much in experience or training

Cons

Young and attractive seems to be the name of the game. I saw good people passed over and party girls promoted.
