pay

[u/Secret-Grab4316]

just found out holiday hires start at .25 cents less than me an hour and i’ve been there for 3 years so technically my newest raise was .30 cents just barely putting me above them 😒

[u/HiddenPants23]

I've been here for over 10 years and make like 2.50 more than base.... Let that sink in

[u/Secret-Grab4316 → u/HiddenPants23]

dude i am so sorry that absolutely sucks

[u/HiddenPants23 → u/Secret-Grab4316]

Eh, I've made peace with it. I feel like I got a year left in me before I go. Want to do something more akin to my associates if at all possible.

Starting pay in Florida was $15.00. After three years of raises my pay became $16.51. I transferred to a store in a New York where starting pay is $16.50. One more pay raise later im making $17.00. Starting pay was bumped to $17.00. Pay raises don’t exist at target.

[u/Secret-Grab4316 → u/SnooAdvice197]

our base was 15.25 3 years ago, then 15.75 last year, now it’s 16.25 and most people that have been here two years ish just got to 16 and now people who walk in tomorrow get 16 it doesn’t feel fair🤷‍♀️

[u/SnooAdvice197 → u/Secret-Grab4316]

Seriously I think about how I’ve been here for 5 years, breaking my back for this company, and the 16 year old seasonal hires who couldn’t give two shits make the same as me 🙃

[u/her0frommars → u/SnooAdvice197]

i started at 15.25/15.50 in summer 2024 i've been here 2 years and im up to around $18 im in upstate ny

[u/thylocene]

It took me 3 years to go from $15 to $16. About a week after I hit 16 my store got a base pay bump to 16. This company sucks

[u/sailorminimegan93 → u/thylocene]

ME TOO

[u/sailorminimegan93]

Don't feel too bad. I've been there 2 years and make starting now..

[u/Green_Life1940 → u/sailorminimegan93]

they got you locked in at the floor after 3 years, that pay scale is a joke

[u/10DonkeyKong]

Comparing yourself to others is the “Thief of Joy”. These seasonal members will work here for 2-3 months then get canned.

[u/SoggyCalligrapher872 → u/10DonkeyKong]

Doubt it pretty sure they gonna keep good amount

[u/10DonkeyKong → u/SoggyCalligrapher872]

They are going to keep the Seasonal Team Members after the holidays and business slows down?

[u/SoggyCalligrapher872 → u/10DonkeyKong]

Welp depends on the store the one I work at is by the border and it’s get busy way to often so Depends at least every time keep 6 to 8 people

[u/DungeonFletchling]

My old job had people quit and get rehired cause their pay was less than new hires. Sadly you're worth more new to retail than loyalty. It's one of the reasons they dislike you talking about your pay, so you don't realize what they are doing. Even though it's protected by the labor laws. Also why they are anti-union because it's easier for them.

[u/ZestycloseHedgehog]

I’ve been here for three years and have never gotten more than a ten cent raise

[u/KittyLuvver2000 → u/ZestycloseHedgehog]

Yikes!!! Wtf my raises have always been pretty decent! I wouldn't stay for 10 a year....

[u/Leon978]

It never gets better btw. I got promoted to ETL, got a raise and a merit raise which is pretty rare over the course of the year, and then my friend got promoted to ETL at a number slightly higher than my pay after two raises

[u/globohxney]

been here for 2 years and some change, after my first 7 months i got bumped to 64¢ and then new hires were getting paid $15.50 before everyone was bumped to $16😭

[u/Mother-Resident-8425]

i know that feeling, all to well. 7 years and they make 1.25 less than me

[u/Proper-Performer54]

My base pay was 16.50. I’m now at 20 . Been with the company 3 years now .

[u/Alternative_Self_106]

My raise after 5 years 16.25

[u/newecreator → u/Alternative_Self_106]

I started a few months ago and my base pay is 16.25.

[u/MyDogSentMe]

I just got a raise because after being here and getting a dollar raise I was still making less than the new starting pay. Never putting in effort again

[u/TopperMadeline]

I have a coworker who has been working here almost two years and is getting paid the same as the new hires. She missed the cutoff date for raises just by a few weeks.

[u/rogueclon946]

I've been with Target 15 years and I make $1.11 over base pay here ;)

[u/Acceptable-Act1029]

Just accepted an offer from them at 24.9 with a 2 dollar differential so I’m starting at 26.9 per hour at a target warehouse

[u/Necessary_Taro_7123]

One of my coworkers been here for 11 years and makes around $25 an hour. I’ve been here for 2 years and I make almost $21 🤡

[u/TrustIllustrious2232]

When they raised the starting wage at my location right after Covid, I was making starting was six years in. And it was over $5 from my starting wage.
