I understand that a few of you worked or work there. What do you like, and what dont you like about working there?

I just applied there today.

I worked at Target 6 years ago for the holiday season. I was a night stocker. I thought they were pretty nice and laid back. Except for one supervisor, he was constantly yelling at us new people but we had another supervisor and he was a nice guy. The stocking was easy.

I hope you get the job!

I, too, worked there. Mike (Shine) is a former Target TM too... Pretty sure he's the one here on SO who worked there the longest.

I started working at Target in late 2007 for the holiday season, as an overnight flow team member (aka night stocker). I got to stay on after the holiday season and was there until earlier this year - April 2009.

I loved working there... But a common problem that seems to be rampant with Targets corporation-wide is that TMs are never guaranteed a certain # of hours every week. That goes to the team leaders (TLs) and above, or people who have been there a long-ass time (I know two people who are just TMs, have been at Target for almost 21 years and are full-time). That was the biggest reason for my leaving Target - I was getting 7.5 to 15 hours every week. I basically said "**** you," applied elsewhere, got a job elsewhere and booked it the **** out of there. I miss Target and would like to work there, but I am NOT going to work there as my primary job. That's just silly. ;)

So, Mickey, that would be my advice to you if they have you stay on after New Years. LOOK FOR A SECOND JOB LOOK FOR A SECOND JOB LOOK FOR A SECOND JOB. Did I mention LOOK FOR A SECOND JOB?

Thanks for the heads up.


I only plan to work part time there anyway.


When I hear something I will let yall know.

Not living in the States, I know little about Target. I hope you get the job, Mickey. :)
