Target Complaints - Terrible working conditions

Terrible working conditions
Complaint Rating:  0 % with 0 votes
Company information:
Target
United States
target.com

I worked at Target from March until July of this year. They treat their employees like slave trade.

The logistics team is forced to work in semi-darkness, an impossible task when being expected to sort and classify merchandise.

The air conditioning is not turned on to appropriate levels until minutes before opening. The workers are worked, "faster, faster", while being denied appropriate access to water, and bathroom breaks.

Personal information about employees is shared at team "huddles", and workers are repeatedly told that they are not indispensable.

The press states that Walmart has a poor record as an employer, it would be wise to open an eye towards the "hip, socially forward, discounter".

OMG i know exactly what you mean i worked for them too from September 2007 to may 2008 I use to have to go over night to put up signs for ad prep it was terrible how they worked. I'm so sorry that happened to you and remember they will get what they deserve.

What "personal" info could have been shared at huddles? Your anniversary? Your birthdate? Get over it. I have helped in the backroom overnight and its not so dark that you cant see what you are doing, thats why the LPDA has a light on it. And as far as the temperature, sure the air is not super cold but its better than working outside in the hot sun. I have been at Target for a long time and it is true that everyone, even the store team leader, is dispensable. The problem these days with people like you is that you want a paycheck without having to really work for it.
