Avantages

medical, dental, and other benefits even for part-time work

Inconvénients

When I was first hired, my supervisor told me that I would be given a full tour of the store including all the fire extinguishers, smoke detectors, and carbon monoxide detectors. She said that I would be given a season employee to shadow for a couple weeks while I learned the ins & outs of the store. She said that I would be introduced to everyone and that nametags were required. She said that, because I have such low blood pressure that I can become dizzy easily, I won't be required to climb the highest ladders unsupervised. None of this came to be. The exact opposite of everything she said happened. The only thing she told me that did come true was her restriction "do not talk about anything personal, especially anything that might be perceived as negative. Leave your personal self at the door." Now all my coworkers think I'm a cold-hearted idiot, but the general manager congratulates me on my professionalism.

Avantages

The Container Store has the most thorough training process of any company I've worked for. The environment was nice, and my coworkers and managers were all great. The employee discount is significant.

Inconvénients

I applied because I was not getting the hours I was promised by my other part-time retail job. During the hiring process, they said I could work as many hours as I wanted, up to 29 hours per week. They did not mention until I was hired and asking for my hours that hours are dependent on how many customers you get to sign up for the rewards program. As a cashier, everyone I checked out who was not a part of the rewards program and did not want to be counted against me. Customers who are already a part of it don't factor in. I could check out 40 people in a shift, only have 5 who weren't part of the program, and only get 2 of them to sign up, and I would be penalized for that with my hours. If you work floor shifts and sign people up on the floor, it's able to boost your score since you don't interact with non-rewards members who don't want to join the system at all, but I was never offered floor shifts. They expected a 60-70% conversion rate, which is not realistic. Most people who want to be part of the program already are, and those who aren't typically aren't willing to even hear your 20-second pitch about it.
