Pros

Coworkers can be nice, first dibs on merch off trucks, 10% discount, decent insurance/benefits, monthly "raffle" drawings for associates (% off coupons etc)

Cons

Lack of payroll, 30 hours is full time, DM's don't even pretend to care about associate concerns quote-"be greatful you have a job at all", delays in posting schedules (ie sometimes you don't know if you're working Sunday until after 5pm on Friday)

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.
