Pros

I applied for this position for the holidays to help me "Find My Christmas". With the pandemic, I struggled during the holidays last year in getting into the spirit of the holidays. I had lost my Christmas spirit...it made me sad. This year, I decided to apply to my favorite stores for weekend work to help get my Holiday Cheer back. Marshall's reached out right away when I sent in my application online. What a Fantastic Team they have at Pensacola Marshall's!! These wonderful, kindhearted people enjoy each other and what they do. They just make me smile! The store is decked out for Christmas and the sales are so great that the shoppers are happy to be there and visit with the staff as they shop. This team cares about each other and the guests that visit the store. I am proud to be a part of what they offer. There's ALOT of Christmas Magic happening in this store. Found my Christmas! Thank you Marshall's Pensacola, I'll see you at work this weekend.

Cons

I haven't found anything negative about this position at all.

Pros

Diversity! Almost no white people working there, and it seems they kind of get pushed to the side when it comes to job opportunity such as full time.

Cons

Really mean managers, they like to lash out when they feel angry, enforce stricter dress codes every 6 months, and make you get people to sign up for credit cards and keep asking even if the customer says no. They also tolerate gay hate because the people hating are “from another generation”. They make millions of dollars monthly and still give their workers 15-20 cent raises, and wage never goes over 11/hour unless you are a manager making a comfy 50k-100k a year.

Pros

- very friendly staff (the teenagers that work are nice at least) - break room has free water and free snacks, as well as a vending machine and a fridge + microwave. sometimes theres ice cream for the employees in the fridge :) - management is very understanding with schedule changes and the occasional lateness - MOST customers are very nice! not as many "karen"s as you'd think haha

Cons

- the very few customers that are rude are extremely rude and sometimes managers don't help the situation - there is a LOT OF CRIME. fake IDs, fake money, etc etc- be prepared! - there are lots of people without masks on who aren't vaccinated and proud of it (they tell me about it), and the company policy is that you cant ask them to put a mask on. - you aren't allowed to refuse service to anyone if they are being rude to you, it's very emotionally draining. - you cant physically stop anyone from stealing either. - the employee discount is only 10% (the dollar store next door gets 20%); i know that isnt my stores fault but it's still kind of unfortunate. - managers will HARP ON YOU to get tjmaxx cards- im 17 and i dont think 14$/hr is enough to be a cashier, crime fighter, investigator, and full blown businessman all in one. they havent punished me yet for not getting very many cards, but i dont doubt they will soon. - it says on the door only service dogs are allowed but people bring in non service dogs constantly. im allergic to dogs so it's legitimately putting me at risk of having an allergic reaction.
