Pros

Good Management coupled with people who care ... usually. Of course, it all depends on what region you work in and whether or not you have competent management. For instance, I hated working in Virginia because they were all slave drivers where politics reigned when advancement opportunities arose. However, I love working in Colorado because the environment is a lot friendlier and the people here actually know what they're doing. Simply put, if you're someone who'd rather be busy doing a physical job than socializing all day or in an office this is a great place to work in the right region.

Cons

As stated above, different regions and districts have different ways of doing things. Some are better than others. If you want to socialize all day and not work hard physically then Target is not for you.

Pros

Stable and great work environment. Some of the mangers are very supportive of the employee while some does the Mega Micro Management which it really hurts. But for the last 3 yrs Target has opened shop in India and slowly moving all the development work there. There are some really good people who have advanced very well in short period of time. Overall I would say it's a great place to be for the job stability and for women to work.

Cons

You have to take very active role to get promoted to the next level. It's not that you get to the next level after some years of work.

Pros

If you are going to school and need flexible working hours I would suggest target. They have some very lenient policies on scheduling and for vacation and time off. They are very ubiquitous with their transportationa nd outside activities.

Cons

They hire outside management so they usually have no idea how to do your job or how best to communicate down.
