Bad place to work for techies
Bad place to work for techies
Decent compensation, a flexible work schedule, and good work-life balance.
If you are a techie fresh out of college, do yourself a favor and do not work for retail companies like Target.
Everyone here is an architect and has little to no knowledge about technology. You will be constantly bombarded with meaningless meetings whose outcome is usually nothing productive, and most of your work will be outsourced to some company in India or Uruguay.
The work culture here is very bad. Most of the days, I used to be the lone team member working. Everyone else would take a holiday under the pretext of WFH.
If you are from a prestigious college with a great technical background, do not consider Target as your workplace option.

Target Interview Experiences
Software Engineer
I had a phone screening which was pretty much behavioral, focusing on my past work. Then, I had a live 30-minute coding interview, which was quite easy. It involved creating a map, making a 'put' call, and a 'get' call.

Video interview on coding pad. The interviewer had questions they wanted me to explain and code out. They also asked preliminary questions relating to skills, languages, background, interests, and workplace preferences.

Easy interview. Great interaction with everyone involved in interviewing. Constant feedback and updates from the recruiter. I had 4 rounds in total. Technical rounds were a bit tough, but just like any other software engineering interview.
