Pros

Communication will help you way to enjoy the pros. If you don't put the effort, then you won't enjoy your job. Pay is better than Walmart for the most part. Most Target stores are safer and not as unreasonable as other retails. There are opportunities to rise in ranks, given qualifying and recognized resume.

Cons

Difficulty to rise in rank, due to competition. Risk of unfavorable leads or retail. May be boring for those seeking more out of their job. You must be self-accountable to avoid trouble.

Pros

If you are looking for a job that you’ll be a part of a fun team environment, have the ability to learn all about customer “guest” service, retail operations and sales, as well as merchandising even at entry level great opportunity. for such a large corporation I have been pleasantly surprised by how tight knit teams are. applying was okay, there were multiple steps (videos, assessments) but overall not too bad)., phone call and then video questions before hiring.

Cons

Pay isn’t great, but for the market it’s fair. Moving up involves a much larger increase in responsibilities and workload relative to the pay increase.
