Vantaggi
The program itself is very structured, with direct goals you have to achieve by the end of the internship. People in general are very nice, and are always willing to help out.
Svantaggi
You have to conform to certain standards, and no recognition is given when effort is put in even if the end result has deviated from original goals. Although the atmosphere around Target seems relaxed and friendly, since it's such a "feedback" based culture, every person talks behind everybody else's back. You literally cannot say one thing without 5 different levels of superiors hearing about it and reprimanding you for it. While Target says they are a diverse company, and welcome all sorts of backgrounds and methods of thinking, they really only want one type of person - type A. Anybody who doesn't give them exactly what they want has "areas of opportunity" they need to work on. Basically, everybody at Target is projecting a front, and doesn't really care whether or not you succeed since they're so worried about succeeding themselves. They tell you one thing, then when it comes down to it, they blindside you with opinions that come from left field.
