You're easily replaced, overworked, and underpaid - Associate TJ Maxx Employee Review

Pros

Easy employment. I truly believe that anyone who is even a marginally decent candidate could get a job there. My experience could be tied to my location and the store manager, and you should take it with a grain of salt.

Cons

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. If you do a great job, then they'll cut everyone's hours until you can't do a decent job at all, and then blame you for it. If you do an average job, they'll dock you hours. Some people worked 4 hours a week, some worked 40. And there was no ability to work with their employees, even long term ones. If you do repeated seasonal work you, will always be listed as a temp, always getting only minimum wage.

Pros

Was easy to apply, Some of the workers were kind and helpful. Employee discount was okay.

Cons

Some parts of managment were harsh. They weren't approachable. Other were kind and wanted to help people grow. They pay wasn't great. Cut my hours during seasonal hiring months.
