Pros

work-life balance, pay, people- no other retailer has a schedule that allows management to have every other weekend off, ease in requesting time off, personal days for management. You are encouraged to think outside the box and your ideas are listened to. Bonuses are atainable, and changing areas are encouraged-you are not locked forever in doing the same job your entire career if you want to change. You are not forced to travel any distances that you do not want to to keep your job.

Cons

you need a 4 year degree to move up, regardless of past experience, which can be frustrating. The good side is that Target has a tuition reimbursement program that helps you to get that degree.

Pros

Ability to transfer in between location, management pay is decent, good springboard to get you into somewhere else, can learn a lot with regards to running a retail store the magnitude of target. You go through a lot supposedly to get to store management level.

Cons

Management direction, everyone is not treated fairly within company, managers give conflicting direction, hourly pay is not great. Once you hit certain level, promotion is non-existant for a long while. Appearance of management having "favorites" that get "special perks". Store management offers different ideas and practices that district management does not confirm as "best practice"
