Pros

There was a great teamwork environment. Everyone was willing to help newcomers learn the ropes and succeed at work.

Cons

The hours were often irregular and difficult to plan too far in advance. Get ready for heavy lifting and lots of running around. It's never a boring day at the Container Store!

Pros

Flexible work schedules, variations in routine and duties keep things from getting boring. Good benefits even for part time workers, great discount. Better than average employees. Good training and communication.

Cons

Very difficult to move into a full time position. Since IPO main focus is on labor hours so customer service can suffer as staff feels spread thin. IT is not keeping up with growth, frequent glitches in POS and Elfa design systems.
