Avantages
- high $ responsibility - social, progressive culture if you’re into that (although POC have historically high turnover rates) - lots of verbal recognition if you have the right manager/BU - autonomy to own your schedule - fast paced environment and ability to drive actual strategy and change - business is doing great and fun to see growth
Inconvénients
- pay is NOT competitive when compared to workload. For an entry level job, they will work you to death (although have heard they finally increased starting rate for new hires - currents IAs haven’t seen that) - all Target owned systems, so hard to transfer those skills to other jobs - no supply chain understanding from merch/planning and a bad BU can make your life miserable - covid/supply chain delays have IAs working completely outside their job descriptions with no additional compensation or recognition - path to promotion is horrible: IAs are getting stuck in role for 3+ years when this is advertised as a 1.5-2 year role.
