    Archived Wage increases to $15 hour!!

    Honestly, I think that time and experience should be rewarded. Next month it will be 9 years that I have been with target. I think that I deserve to be paid more then anyone else just starting out in the same paygrade. I just think it's common sense. But, then again they hire fresh out of...

    Archived $10.00 Minimum Wage?

    If it is happening in April, they probably know by now. They are probably being told to act clueless about it until its officially announced by headquarters. Knowing Target, they will release it through the media first, then we will find out. Of course, our TL's/ETL's/STL's will pretend they...

    Archived $10.00 Minimum Wage?

    Well, I hope we do go to $10.00 minimum wage, but I am not going to get my hopes up until I see it on the news or hear about it from my TL, ETL, or STL.... Fingers crossed!!!

    Archived $10.00 Minimum Wage?

    So, you are confirming that Target minimum wage will be going from the current $9.00 to $10.00, to obviously match Wal-Mart's minimum wage around April 1st ?

    Archived $10.00 Minimum Wage?

    Target just reported 4th quarter earnings on February 24th, they also released estimates for the rest of 2016, but nothing has been mentioned about raising the minimum wage to $10.00, which would effect the estimates for the year. So, we followed Wal-Mart last year when they went to minimum wage...

    MEGATHREAD $9 minimum wage starts soon!!!

    So, basically if your a new team member making the national minimum wage of $7.25 and and get a 25 cent merit raise, then you will get another $1.50 to put you at the new Target minimum wage of $9.00 (N03....Cashiers, Cart Attendant, Sales Floor). But if you have been with Target for many years...

    MEGATHREAD $9 minimum wage starts soon!!!

    I apologize, I looked at some pay grade break downs and realized my mistake. Most of the sales floor is base pay, except for a few areas..... which I work in one of those few areas, that's why I am a N05 pay grade.

    MEGATHREAD $9 minimum wage starts soon!!!

    Sales floor is NOT base pay..... Cashier, Guest Services, and Cart Attendant is!!! (N03), which is base pay. Sales floor is N05, I would know, I work on the Sales Floor. Maybe some stores just have different pay grades, wouldn't make sense, but you never know.

    Archived Walmart raising starting pay to $10.

    Like I said before, I make $8.60/hr.... which I live fine off of. I mean, I have no kids, and I also have roommates, so that helps. But, I also am very smart with my money. I live a lifestyle that SHOULD be lived with someone that makes what I make. I don't mean to offend some people, but if you...

    Archived Walmart raising starting pay to $10.

    Well, I have never done it, but if you go on craigslist, depending on your location, you would be surprised. Obviously its not legal to advertise for prostitution, but a lot of horny people use craigslist, and if they want something bad enough, I am sure they would be willing to pay for it.

    Archived Walmart raising starting pay to $10.

    Reading all this negativity is really irritating me.... Target is a great company, yes we have made some mistakes in the past few years, but we are not doomed. I think it is funny that people think Walmart has an endless amount of jobs, they don't. It is very unrealistic to think you can just...

    Archived 2015 Health Benefits Rumor!!!!

    So, a few days ago a team member told me he heard that this year to qualify for any Target health benefits, you have to have an average of 38 hours. Most the things he has told me have ended up being true. I really hope he is wrong this time, because I would lose my Target health benefits, which...
