Pros
Target really cares about your leadership development. They go the extra mile to make sure that you are on the right path for your career goals. They encourage feedback whether coming up the command or down, and recognition is an important part of their culture. They really try to have fun at work.
Cons
It's a retail setting, so it gets pretty crazy on a daily basis. Rarely did we have a 'slow' day. It might start off that way, but it would always pick up and get messy in the store. Once the store is falling behind, its up to the later crews to pick up the slack, and this often results in them staying late. Definitely better to open than to close. It can be annoying to work with crabby customers.
