TJ Maxx reviews

Low pay, annual raises are very small (on the order of 25 cents/hour). Payroll is very spartan, often not enough for efficient operation of the store. Especially if you are part-time, the # of hours can fluctuate significantly from one week to the next....do not take a pt sales associate job if you need to have a reliable and steady source of income. The company tries to keep staff at a minimum and squeeze the maximum amount of work from them. Sometimes I think they run so lean it is detrimental to the efficient operation of the store and the morale of the employees. Floor associates are often called from their tasks/projects to work the cash registers and cover breaks. This practice is sometimes frustrating, especially when floor associates have heavy workloads of their own to deal with. Like in any retail setting, you occasionally have to deal with customers that are nasty, demanding, and/or condescending.

They have a crappy 10% discount for employees,who work very hard,while the CEO of the company makes millions on the backs of the associates.If you send ideas to the corporate office for ideas on new promotions,sales raising ideas,etc,they never have the decency of sending a simple "thank you"to acknowledge the inititive you took.
