Pros

Shopping with a discount, first choice at high-end merchandise. Customers generally knowledgeable and friendly. Some opportunity for advancement, limited by low turnover. Excellent medical/dental.

Cons

Very little turnover at management levels, leaving few opportunities for advancement, lower-than-average raises at reviews and promotions, poor communications despite an "open door" policy, no guarantee of hours even for full-time employees.

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)
