Pros

Friendly coworkers Fun to work at Flexible hours

Cons

I have been working here for 6 years and until they were forced to pay more for minimum wage I had been working for the lowest wage I could’ve gotten which at the time was $12 with pay raises being from a minimum of 1 cent to 10 cents maximum. You could work as hard as you want but at the at the end of the day it doesn’t matter because you get a 800-1200 piece truck every day with the pallets stacked like Jenga towers after the game is over or they are stacked too high. I have gotten hurt here and only two higher ups knew until two days later and told me that I was gonna have to use my sick days to cover a major concussion followed by the person at company’s health insurance telling me that “I shouldn’t have been hired and shouldn’t be able to work there anymore”. Nothing ever gets finished because of the crazy amounts of product that come in and usually we have to play Tetris every day to fit the pallets in to receive another 24-25 pallets on top of what we already have. Overall since the company has tried to chase high profits by increasing the amount of items that need to be processed and lowering the amount of actual processors it has become a miserable job and not worth the pain.

TJX Rewards

Pros

Good place to work as long as you LOVE selling Credit Cards.

Cons

You WILL sell the TJX rewards credit card to goal every month or you will not enjoy your time here. 10hr days turns into 12hr days very quickly. The company will shove freight down your throat wether it fits in the store or not.

Stressful company to work for

Pros

Managers are paid pretty decent and there are more employee discount days than other companies I’ve worked for.

Cons

Managers are forced to work long hours bc of the lack of talent required to run the business. If you can’t work extra, you will be branded as unreliable and subpar employee. Coordinators are paid peanuts and over worked. If you’re the BRC, (backroom coordinator)your life will be hell. Part-time employee pay was even worse and they were shamed for taking days off. Home Office/Upper management are more concerned with getting product in the building than the safety of the team. The company expectation is to finish a truck in 24 hours. The company doesn’t pay its part-time and coordinators enough, to get talent that can aid in assistance with streamlining freight. Instead, the company will settle with retirees on social security bc those are the only people available to accept $12 an hour. Those team members were constantly being pointed out as the problem for trucks being pushed/delayed. But the real problem is with the company refusing to pay employees a decent wage and overstocking stores to where it becomes unsafe for employees and customers as well. If OSHA were to walk into the stores, I can guarantee half would be shutdown due to safety and health violations.
