    Why is Target so bad at keeping items in stock?

    Our Target Mobile is about to buy sim cards online and cancel the order so they go return to stock. Distribution center never supplys them enough sim cards which is hurting their commission. When they do send some once a month, they send like 5 which lasts us all but a few hours. They literally...

    Archived Target Tech Nightmare

    I never really have any problems at my store except for now. As an electronics person, I work closely with Target Tech people. I have seen a ton come and go, especially some really awesome ones. Right now, there is one guy who is the absolute worst and has a criminal rap-sheet that he...

    Archived Electronics Plus Mobile

    My store was one of the stores that phased out Target Tech back in August, and simply merged that position with Electronics, creating Electronics Plus Mobile. As an Electronics TM, I was given the choice of either sucking it up and doing the extra 40+ hours of training, or switching to...

    So next week our electronics department is taking over Target Mobiles duties. We are also end to end. Was told we would not recieve double coverage either.

    Archived Possible to work for both Target and Target Tech?

    I'm guessing the answer to this is 'No' due to some kind of competitor's clause, but, my store is one of the stores that is keeping Target Tech around rather than phasing it out, and, as an Electronics Team Member I'm tired of the unprofessionalism and lack of focus from the Target Tech Team at...

    Apparently I'm hearing from multiple team members who work for Mobile that the store will be giving out $300 gift cards for all iPhone 7 models starting on March 26th. That's even bigger than Black Friday gift card deals. Some stores will even have Mobile team members working from opening to...

    Seriously, I should change my name to that, I like it.... Anyhow, I have been doing the Mobile thing for a few years now, and keep getting surprised at how much the Store management, and by extension the Target team doesn't realize, or know about us, and what we actually do all day. So after...

    Archived Buying a smartphone at target

    I'm gonna be buying an s7 this week and was wondering if smartphones are discounted like everything else at target (10% employee discount/5% redcard)? And would the carriers like At&t also match those discounts at their own stores?
