Pros

Relatively flexible hours. Everyone very nice. Staff great. Fun shopping while working! Perfect to work in during high school or university as you can get a weekend contract.

Cons

High pressure when the shop is busy. Every afternoon "maintenance" (cleaning up of the shop) needs to be done and this can be a thankless task with messy customers.

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)
