Pros

Great co-workers. Roles are easy to learn. Managers are always willing to help. Break times are 15 mins long and lunches are 45 mins long compared to 30 mins at most other retail stores.

Cons

Communication between managers were often lost. Time flexibility is often questioned. Difficult to request important days off. Highly expected to be expendable. Hard to go to school and work at the same time here.

Pros

The work is the same every day (at least for janitors), and you don't have many surprises. In my experience, there is a lot of leeway for who does what as long as it gets done. I don't personally mind helping out in all departments after I am done cleaning. Current store manager (not asms) is very nice and understanding.

Cons

The management (Assistant managers in my experience) is at each other's throats to be the best out there and suck up to the district manager. The pressure to coerce customers into buying into the TJX card is a bit much. It all trickles down to the front end, which then causes everyone to be unhappy. Compensation is low and raises are based on company loyalty first, then your efficiency.
