Pros

-10% discount -Different positions within the store (jewelry, cashier, stocking, dressing room, etc)

Cons

-My store's general manager was a snake with unrealistic expectations, I had my job threatened multiple times over my ability to fold rugs quickly -Minimum wage, at least at the time I was there -They push you very very hard to sell the TJX "rewards" card, which has at least a 26% interest rate. You can't sell that to an unsuspecting customer if you have a conscience. I had to apply for one myself to not risk my hours being cut for too few signups. -Last two weeks before Christmas, store was open until 11pm and you still had to clean up after close. Very hard to work on school assignments while working that late. -TJX is very very anti-union. No opportunity to have a force of employees make a change. -

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.
