Pros

Awesome And Nice people Everyone keeps to themselves to some degree. Break room has vending machines and free snacks.

Cons

The pay is not worth the level of work for someone working in the backroom prepping the products for the store. Employees are female by majority and tend to exercise dominance sometimes on the few males. corporate constantly shoves pellets worth of product and expect 2 people to handle 10+ pellets per day. one to unload to pellets and the other to remove the products from the boxes and prep them on carts for the in store employees to put on the shelves. corporate keeps implementing rules, that delays our efforts to get products out while doing absolutely nothing to better the situation or come up with a better system that is more up to date and smooth. Majority of the females there are veterans that have been there 5 plus years and tend to abuse that so that they dont have to work as hard. In desperate need of new people to help with pushing product out. currently one person doing the job of 2 people with the pallets alone. The store needs a revamp of their products and the shelving system for them. It looks like a thrift store with overpriced items right now.

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)
