Pros

They are a very flexible with schedules. I have worked with them seasonally for 4 years. They have always been considerate of my time line, but I also have been considerate of the fact I am only working for a short time with them. Meaning, I tried to make sure I was flexible too; taking closing shifts, etc. It's easy work and a relaxed environment, but you're still expected to do a satisfactory/above satisfactory job. Management definitely does their job well.

Cons

This is a job which does only pay minimum wage. You are given a raise every year I believe, which is about 25 cents an hour. Since mine is seasonally, I was only given one raise during the entire four years. The hours are all over the chart. It's not a job you can easily move up to a management/supervisor role. You typically stay at you beginning position, unless you are there for years and are friendly with management.

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)
