Pros

Coworkers great. Benefits pretty good, (although getting worse every year like most companies). Target is attempting to find it's place in the new digital world (although, short of staff reductions, their strategy isn't clear and definitely not transparent).

Cons

Too in love with the latest corporate speak / business gimmick. Culture a bit Stepford wife-ish. Maybe that will change with this new transformation. Days of a company committing to you are over. As soon as you get too old they will get rid of you. Who you know (visibility) is more important that what you do. Negotiate a good salary up front as raises tiny for everyone but the execs.

Pros

The location I worked for had a great group of people... *Their RF system pretty much does all the guess work for you *Fulfillment, drive-up, and ship positions are fun to work

Cons

The amount of experience I have in fulfillment order processing exceeds the starting pay scale... *Everywhere is short-staffed *Their call-in policy is to call the store; you can't really get a hold of anyone, and there is an option for call-in on the app, but it is considered a no-call no-show if you don't call the store. You should be able to call in on the app, and that should be enough. It's double the work.
