Pros

- Some of the tasks are fun. - Meet some great and wonderful customers. - Our store is brand-new, so it's a beautiful store with great looking registers, dressing rooms and bathrooms, along with cool carts that lock up if you try to take them out of the building (which means not having to retrieve carts from the parking lot)

Cons

- Very hard to get more than 20 hours, unless people call out and they need coverage. - Some of the customers that shop here are terrible people, they are rude, rip clothes off hangers, break merchandise, and leave carts full of items in the middle of the store. - I should be making more than minimum wage. - Discount is only 10%

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)
