Target Pay vs New Job
I worked full-time as a POG TM all through 2023, making about $15.20/hr. I left my full-time position with Target right at the start of 2024 for a new job that pays around $25.00/hr, and seeing the difference on paper while filing taxes honestly felt surreal. What’s even crazier is that the benefits at my new job are WAY better, and the work and stress levels are like a tenth of what Target would throw at me. I’m literally doing 90% less physical work for almost $20k more a year. Target really is a beast of a company to work for 😭
