Pros

Good pay in level with amount of duties and other retail positions, high company investment into employee satisfaction, focused positions ensuring you aren't doing multiple jobs at proper staffing. excellent first job for younger people, strong dedication to diversity, equity and inclusion in the face of current political pushback against openly supporting said policies,

Cons

Hours are sometimes limited, the company is experimental with processes and may implement new procedures on select stores to test their effectiveness (or lack thereof), prone to the general retail issue of employee conflict and favoritism, lower level employees may find themselves being directed by multiple people with different tasks.

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)
