Pros

The employees for the most part have been very likable and I've made quite a few friends during my time there. One of the main reasons I chose to work for the company is the merchandise, you can always find something good at Tj Maxx and getting to browse the store before the customers was a plus. They also have these monthly drawing which was fun.

Cons

Being a part time associate means low hours, average 20 hrs weekly. The pay is terrible, they start you off at the minimum wage. The store is almost always a mess. Customers coming in putting merchandise in every location except the right one. Messy, messy. There are almost never enough people working, and those who are, are constantly called to the registers every 5 minutes. Oh and those stupid credit apps, they want you to ask EVERY customer, EVERY time even the ones that come twice a day. So annoying.
