Pros

Very laid back, if you have had a real job then this is a cake walk. Just busy work. They sometimes offer 20% or $20 gift certificates every month. Not a minor management company.

Cons

where do I begin... management has no clue was being organized is. They hire almost anyone, The worst employees I've ever worked with. One week you have hours and the next week none. No one can do their job right and most of the staff don't want to work or and don;t show up to work. Managers can't get a schedule right to save their life. They offer candy as a reward, what am I 12...? If you are a coordinator you are under paid for being a glorified baby sitter. Corporate changes the methods of how we should work which is suppose to make things better but makes a simple take more complicated. The list just goes on...

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.
