    Archived Looking to move on....

    Well, I have been gone six months now. Best move I have ever made. Love the new job and have been promoted as well. Sure makes a difference when your know how and experience are valued rather than ignored. I am on track to be managing my own store in a couple years. This is the same guy...

    Got a job at another retailer. Last day at Target was today. Got a job that is the equal to the ETL position and no degree is required. They look for experience and not how much you spent on college. Better hours, better pay, no taking orders from cheerleaders.

    Archived Looking to move on....

    I have had it. After four years I am at my wits end. Started out well and I loved my job, but last year I transferred to another store and things have been sliding downhill ever since. This place is nothing more than a high school. Run by a bunch of sexist women who have driven off...

    Archived Calling Integrity Hotline

    If a store gets 2 or more hotline calls in a year, your HR and STL are put under a microscope for awhile. Expect more visits than usual from District level and higher people if this happens. Yes, they take these calls seriously.

    Archived TERMED ON MONDAY- NO CALL BACK-Please give advice !!!

    If a store gets more than 2 hotline calls in a year, they will start to attract some unwanted attention from HQ. It does have an effect. You may not see it, but it does impact the STL and the ETL staff in a bad way.

    Archived So target is so hardup for new hires that they give refferal bonuses now

    My last job offered 500 bucks if a referral stayed 6 months. It is a common tactic in the business world.

    As long as pricing and presentation have been doing a good job, you should not have any problems.

    Archived No more Michael Graves

    All good partnerships eventually come to an end. With all the other big names jumping in with Target the last couple years it will not be too hard to find someone else with some cool designs to fill the void.

    Archived Would you leave Target for a totally different job if.....

    Would you be happy? That is the big question. If you are happy with what you do, then who gives a rip what others think? I work retail and actually enjoy it more days than not. That is a win for me. Past jobs I have had made more money, but I was miserable every single day. It is...

    Archived Does anyone think Target is a big high school?

    Considering most of the night shift are teenagers it would not be much of a stretch. So glad I work dayside. The crew tends to be older and more mature about life in general.

    Archived No more calling no-shows at my store

    It is in the best practice manual not to call. It is there to avoid favoritism and such. If you call one and do not call the other and they get fired, they can make a case against Target.

    Archived Target's Anti Union Video

    I was a union member and actually an officer of the local lodge for over 12 years at my last job. Be glad there are no unions at Target. All a union would do is put a barrier between you and your supervisors much worse than anything you can imagine. Trust me on this one- Unions in a retail...

    To that one guest

    The other day in toys I was walking through and came around the corner and saw these twin girls about 4 years old. They had totally demolished everything they could get their hands on in the doll aisle. They were sitting there wide eyed and having the time of their lives. Boxes open, doll...
