The TJX Companies, Inc. Employer Reviews

Doing cashier was OK but some days I would have liked to get more help back in the fitting room when it was very busy. Either low on employee could have played part, not sure. Store would get messy right after straightening up esp. in the clothes and underwear sections.

Go to work with prepared for a fast paced day in sales. They taught me to work the cash register, pick up clothes and other things in the designated areas. Management was some of the finest I've seen. Friendly, but constructive in criticism. A perfect meld of what a manager should be.
The hardest part of the job was the short-staffed days that happened – more... a plethora of days. For the fast pace in the store, a larger number of employees should definitely have been compromised.
I loved the people though, A wonderful work experience. – less

Friendly co-workers and I train new employees, run cash register, maintain store inventory, and customer service.

SHORT DAYS NOT MANY HOURS AVAILABLE.
BAD MANAGEMENT.
WORKING AS A TEAM OF SIX WAS NICE

Manager is a very friendly person, co workers were fun to work with, very nice enviroment and learned a few basic skills.

Greeting people is an experince each day.It has it's ups and downs but I made the best of whatever situation occurred. Iam a outgoing,problem solver, easy going person but I take my job seriously and speak my mind when necessary. Overall I enjoy what I do.

Productive envoirment, great friendly associates hard working , Set up for truck deliveries three times per week Train new employees on how to procuctively manage their time safelyusing our work smart program the amost enjoyable time for me is taking associates under my wing and teaching them how to use the work smart program and seeing the ir goals – more... being met – less

The management was one of the best parts of the job. They were always willing to take time out of their day to help with something you didn't understand. They kept an open door policy so if we ever needed to talk they were more than willing to listen.

Productive and fun work place. Taught me great customer service skills

The hardest part about working in tj maxx was closing at night and the fact that you are not allowed to leave the store if the whole sales floor is not clean regardless of what time your schedule states. sometimes you wouldnt get to go home till an hour and a half past your scheduled time.

My day would consist of being productive and better today than I was yesterday. I have learned a great deal of experience when dealing with loss-prevention in how to develope a team of detectives and to develope each individual into a productive source for my company, being in management allowed me to better understand what it takes to get the job done – more... in a productive manner without many errors in the developement of my empployee's. The most challenging with developing a productive source would be the individual not performing his or her job and I train each individula with the highest level of servive and they don't pay attention to detail it's hard for me as a manager to except just average when I am providing the individual with the best training possible. – less

Great starting job, company is growing and are willing to train associates for management, like to promote within.

very fun environment to be associated in nice managers dont ask much of you

Minimum wage with about 25 cent raises once a year. People I work with have been with the company for 4 years and over and dont even make $9. If youre front end expect to be drilled to open TJX credit cards so the company meets their goal for the week. Our LP in Orlando is horrific and I cant count how many times we've been hit with women running out – more... the store with 7 Michael Kors purses which will come out of your hours. They need to keep a certain amount of people staffed REGARDLESS meaning while half the employees are getting about 10-14 hours maximum a week they will still hire five new people. My coworkers are the only ones that put a smile on my face because we all get along well as a family unit. However expect messy retail at its BESSSST for chump change that will remain such until you leave. High turnover rate. – less

It was an okay company to work for but the hours were not for me because I have small children.

there was never a typical day at work, because every day was different. people coming in with problems about clothing and returns, to helping people find an outfit for a high school reunion. i learned how to interact with the customers on a more personal level, and how to help them the quickest but most efficient way possible while handling everyday – more... duties (keeping floor and racks clean, running go back racks from dressing room, etc.). – less

Very fun place to work, the management was very friendly. The co-workers were nice and easy going.

Great and laid back company to work for. A typical day included helping costumers, stocking merchandise and keeping sales floor clean.

In this company a typical day would start as revising emails. The rest of the day was spent at revising register transactions identify possible theft by an associate and completing surveillance of possible shoplifters in the store and prosecuting shoplifters. Management was a very organized and involved with apprehensions of shoplifters and open to – more... ideas on how to improve our security system to decrease the amount of loss to the company. The most enjoyable part of this job was prosecuting shoplifters and dishonest associates and participating in investigations of internal/external theft. – less
