    TK Maxx Store assistant, February 2024

  • Best thing

    It’s honestly a fun place to work with the right people. It’s a great job for students who work 8 hour contracts. The pay isn’t terrible but if a big expense comes your way then you are likely not going to be able to afford it.

    Worst thing

    Management talks down to you and almost treats you like children. Regionals and higher ups don’t really understand how hard the job can be in a busy store with inconsiderate customers who purposefully make mess in front of workers. People mistreat and misuse fitting rooms such as ‘doing their business’ in them. Managers will often come over to help if a customer becomes aggressive but just to tell the customer you are in the wrong and then they get discounts on their shopping for inconveniencing us working there.

    TK Maxx Store assistant, November 2023

  • Best thing

    Nothing

    Worst thing

    The management don’t respect you. Buyers are put on such a pedestal and don’t respect anyone lower than them. You’re expected to do heavy lifting, when you’re not trained/not in contract. Expected to train new starters, create new training material without any pay rise. Disability is not taken seriously
