Horrible company to work for

Pros

Nothing worth making note of.

Cons

Toxic work environment. The company cares more for the shareholders than the employees. No opportunity for growth. Favoritism and unfair work evaluation. No recognition for job well done. Feedback is poorly received. Little to no work/life balance.

Pros

Benefits for part-time employees; good coworkers; flexible scheduling.

Cons

The Container Store does not foster a culture of investing in their employees or promoting from within. Also, very low pay for job responsibilities that include design work and multi-thousand dollar sales.

Pros

Employee discount and great products

Cons

Understaffed and customers yell because there is nobody to help them. Culture and foundation principles are just about gone.
