Pros

Great colleagues and great bargains.

Cons

Despite being a very profitable business lack of payroll and extreme workload just applies so much pressure that everyone is miserable. District managers are negitive and humiliate managers infront of collagues and have no idea how tough the day to day workload is. Store managers are forced to create a show of a caring happy place to work with birthday cakes etc but its all for photos and very ungenuine. Eg if you ask for time off for important family events you will be very unlikey to be allowed as the needs of the business come before your life. You will only progress well if you have no life, friends or family and are willing to give every minute of your life to tkmaxx. Expected to work really long hours and as a salaried manager you may seem well paid but when you calculate the hours you work, your hourly rate is not good. Teamleaders are pressured to clock out and then work hours extra for free to get the ridulious work load achieved.
