Avantages
It is always good to learn about retail and how a store operates and that is what Target shows you, from the front end to the backroom. They are very open to change and make sure new procedures and policies are tested before a massive rollout. They are also very big on rewarding and praising employees who do a good job. Plus you can't beat the 10% employee discount.
Inconvénients
The schedule is one of the major downsides. As a Team Leader you close one weekend a month, plus your normal weekday night, and you will stay until the store is picked up and finished (even if that means until 1 or 2 in the morning), then you have to turn around and open the store the very next day. They don't understand that after midnight, most employees production goes downhill. Also you work with a lot of young teenager's, who will bring high school to work. This is sometimes their first or second job, so gossip is more important than the job.
