Pros

The job was easy to land and the interview process was very quick.The amazing people you meet on the job and the merchandise is trendy and a great value.There is always something to do to keep busy

Cons

The workload was uneven for certain associates and the turnover was very high and new employees would need to be trained constantly. Management needs to motivate employees better and create a better work environment

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)
