Pros

You have the opportunity to learn all areas of management. The positions are all interchangeable. You will learn operations even while being a merchandising manager. They strongly believe in promoting within. Their benefits are strong and their bonus plan is fair.

Cons

The company applies a tremendous amount of stress and work on the management team without providing them with the proper resources to effectively tackle these tasks within the given amount of time and payroll. The amount of product we receive (this is aside from any other operational tasks or merchandising such as audits, conference calls, department moves, seasonal projects) is not feasible when you take a look at the grand scheme of any tj maxx building. The management teams are understaffed, the employees are overworked, and the pressure gets applied from the top down which just causes very fragile and stressed work environments. They do not believe in quality of your personal life.
