Pros

my coworkers were nice and I loved the discount!

Cons

insanely stressful, if there’s no price on something you have to ask a fellow associate to go look around the store to find a duplicate of that item with a price and if they couldn’t find one then they had to just find something similar and guess the price based off of that. It took a long time and was very awkward just standing with the customer while they were looking for it. My managers were also not the best… very passive aggressive

Pros

-flexible and accomodating hours - good partime job for college student - very neutral experience, but the fact that it wasn't terrible makes it a pro -10% employee discount

Cons

-lower pay than other retail places ($12 when I was there) - general cons that just come with retail (rude customers, boring tasks, etc.) - store is constantly being rearranged, and is also disorganized on purpose so customers have to search through/look at more things to find what they are looking for -CONSTANTLY having to push the TJ Maxx credit card and having managers literally walk by to make sure you are - can't wear t-shirts or any graphic tees including ones in the store (which always bothered me because if they can sell it I should be able to wear it)
