Pros

Great deals and rare finds Friendly coworkers

Cons

Lazy Management(Managers direct and not lead by example, some of the assistant managers were great but the gm was the worse.) Overwhelming work(having one person close their department while being a cashier when it gets busy) Tried to save money by scheduling less associates which causes us to feel like slaves especially when management just watches and directs and doesnt provide the proper help.

Pros

-flexible and accomodating hours - good partime job for college student - very neutral experience, but the fact that it wasn't terrible makes it a pro -10% employee discount

Cons

-lower pay than other retail places ($12 when I was there) - general cons that just come with retail (rude customers, boring tasks, etc.) - store is constantly being rearranged, and is also disorganized on purpose so customers have to search through/look at more things to find what they are looking for -CONSTANTLY having to push the TJ Maxx credit card and having managers literally walk by to make sure you are - can't wear t-shirts or any graphic tees including ones in the store (which always bothered me because if they can sell it I should be able to wear it)
