Pros

Your co-workers, Seeing new product before anyone?

Cons

Pay. Shifts for part-time is usually four hours per day; not enough time to do a decent job on what you are required to do in any department, especially back room. Not smart about hiring; only hire people to work the front of the store and no help in the back room.

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)
