Avantages
For a lot of people straight out of college Target is a great place to start your career. They specifically hire college recruits and the starting salary is fairly good. It is also the only job I know of where you will be immediately managing large amounts of people and a large business.
Inconvénients
Target says that its Executives do not spend 50% of their time doing manual labor. That is not true, from the minute you start till the minute you go home you will be doing manual labor. Setting and stocking shelves, cleaning, checking expiration dates, cashiering, the tasks never end. More importantly they require a ten hour work day. In itself thats not too bad. But usually you are there for 11-12 hours a day and then you dont get two days off in a row for two weeks. Imagine working for 7 days straight, then getting a day off. Not fun. The way they structure you weeks you only get two weekends off per month. After a while this really gets to be a drag,. Target also promises the world to everyone, but delivers to almost no one. I have seen a lot of incompetent people get promoted while other people with 20 years of experience cant even make it to the executive level.
