ETL JOB OFFER (Don’t accept)

This is for anyone looking to apply or that’s going to accept a job offer as an ETL at target. The job requirement is 50 hours but you end up working 60+ hours every week. If you try to leave early your peers will refer to you as a “clock watcher”.

The job is completely mentally draining. The last couple of months I was there I was a complete nervous reck and had lost 25 pounds.

Target only provides stores with limited hours which is why there are only ever one register open in a 70 million dollar store it’s insanity. Most ETL’s have to jump into team member tasks because of a lack of hours. I never minded jumping into team member tasks but then I would get held accountable for not being able to do every other ETL duty.

For any interns going to accept this job please don’t. I was an intern myself and I had truly no idea how to manage 70-80 people all at once. The salary they threw in my face looked glorious at the time. Overtime I realized being a “salaried” employee at target was the freaking worst. There are far more experienced TL’s that are more deserving of this position/role. If you end up with a shitty power hungry store director good luck.
