Pros
Decent pay You'll usually have a couple of great co-workers and at least one manager who are willing to assist you and are positive even when it feels like the store is collapsing around you. Sometimes flexible with work hours, this varies from store to store.
Cons
No healthcare under 40hr/weeks. Mostly to be expected. Dysfunctional equipment, barely enough equipment to do our jobs such as back-stocking, making calls/receiving calls, or auditing. Constantly having to share and wait on other team members to finish work in order to get a working device to do your own job. The rate of work to increase of pay is astronomically imbalanced towards far more work for a very small pay raise. You are expected to do multiple jobs that would've been their own department before "modernization" in the same, or less hours. Also expect to cover people's absences often, including managers, and expect to deal with people, problems, and various other items outside of your 'dedicated business', even though you've been told that you are only to focus on your own 'business'. I was with a Target long ago that did overnight work for their stockers. We got done quickly and the store looked 'Great by 8'. Occasionally we helped the backroom team get backstock done because everything would be set quickly. Now, things are out of stock/misplaced everywhere, we cant unload everything in time on many days because we are constantly missing people, new hires come and go due to the cutthroat requirements, you have to run around the to assist with anything from getting carts outside even though you are in the far back of the store, to getting heavy items off the backroom shelving with electric pallet jacks for guests, to covering calls and making calls for guests to every possible target store in the area, if that's what they want, and much, much more that would be too exhausting to list in addition to the work you are supposed to get done for the day. Expect very little reward for breaking your back to meet expectations, because there will always be more for you to do if they see you breaking your back for them. Overall, It seems as punishment for their own decision to go to $15/hr, they are squeezing out everything they can from a skeleton crew. I have worked other jobs making more than $15/hr doing far, far less work, both manually and mentally (and would've stayed at those if life matters permitted them). In Target's current state of flux and chaos, I can no longer recommend them as a first, in-between, or last job, but your store experience may vary, there are a couple places with excellent teams who are able to pull it together, but on a district level, a very small percentage of stores are actually able to meet expectations per management's comments. A couple team members lost could throw your store into the same chaos as everyone else's own. Training is very much trial-by-fire as well, which does not help keep the store staffed.
