Amazing work, great customers, lackluster management.

What makes you most happy at work?

Making coffee, talking up the regulars, and seeing friendly coworkers each day

What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?

Overall, I'd say Target is a positive, energetic place to work. Miscommunication and strange leadership decisions aside, I would recommend Target employment above most retailers.

What are some of the best things about your team?

Let's just say communication down the chain of command was.. lacking. I'm sure it was sufficient for those working in the department store itself, but our tasks were a store within a store. A cornucopia of miscommunication.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

I worked in the Target in-store Starbucks. Technically we were Target employees. When I began work at the location, our barista staff had a tip jar. It wasn't much, but it certainly helped given the numerous duties the barista handles every day. Shortly after employment, corporate pulled the tip jar

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Leadership was lacking, to say the least. Again - Target. I worked alongside a gal who had been a barista for six years at multiple Starbucks locations. Was she the manager? Haha, no. Some guy from electronics was transferred over to manage and had zero idea how to run a coffee shop.
