The Container Store reviews

After working in multiple stores over years experience has shown time and time again this company does not stand for they things it says - like treating their employees right assuming the best in people, managing with grace of authority etc. They use their guiding principles to manipulate their employees. Especially with part timers constantly dangling carrots in front of you stringing you on to make full time. Once you figure out whats going on they just stop giving you hours other than making you unload the truck at 5am.

You are expected to arrange your entire life around the store-if you want to be liked & respected. They would prefer you to be available 5am until 12:30am,7 days a week. Very high pressure sales for a sales position with no commission. Management is quite incompetent & often less knowledgeable than many of the part time employees. Management likes to delegate, but not get involved-if possible. When they do get involved, they micro-manage, which hurts more than it helps. Good employees have been forced out, because of petty Manager dislikes. Favoritism is VERY obvious.
