Pros

Work-life balance, pay, people. No other retailer has a schedule that allows management to have every other weekend off. Ease in requesting time off, personal days for management.

You are encouraged to think outside the box, and your ideas are listened to.

Bonuses are attainable, and changing areas are encouraged. You are not locked forever into doing the same job your entire career if you want to change. You are not forced to travel any distances that you do not want to in order to keep your job.

Cons

You need a 4-year degree to move up, regardless of past experience, which can be frustrating. The good side is that Target has a tuition reimbursement program that helps you get that degree.

Advice to Management

Don't forget to look at lower management that is very talented but lacks degrees.
