Our suburban Target near Seattle just bumped the minimum pay to $17.50 hourly. Our store faces enormous difficulty recruiting currently particularly as many stores are hiring, and Amazon in particular is scooping up new hires. What are others seeing in their stores?
Target just reported 4th quarter earnings on February 24th, they also released estimates for the rest of 2016, but nothing has been mentioned about raising the minimum wage to $10.00, which would effect the estimates for the year. So, we followed Wal-Mart last year when they went to minimum wage...
It is official, minimum wage for target employees will increase to $9 in April. Read article in link for proof!!!!
