Avantages

Simply put, your co-workers in general will be real people. Not the higher ups but the people that are in the trenches with you doing the manual labor. Almost everybody I met while working in Manhattan Logistics were honest, down to earth and friendly barring one or two people I simply didn't get to meet. The floor team were cool with the stock team (my dept.) and were always willing to help. The discount was AMAZING (moved out of my house and fully contained my entire life with less than $1,000 including three bookshelves) and the hours are amazing for students and people with two jobs.

Inconvénients

Logistics management is subpar at best. It's pretty much playing politics with anybody who Is so much as full-time. Full-time is considered supervisor, supervisor is manager and manager is dept. manager which makes no sense at all and makes simply advancement near impossible. One full-timer was part-time for FIVE YEARS before getting full-time and this particular employee was actually a great worker. Also, don't think you can bring up a problem with one of the supervisors. It's impossible. Unforgiving and completely oblivious of hard work, they will disregard your greatest achievements and exasperate your most forgettable error. Favoritism is the name of the game so if you're the type to stand around and joke with the supervisors and managers while everyone else works, get ready for the easiest paycheck of your life. Everyone else, on the other hand, get ready to get cuts, bumps, bruises and scars from putting in the work of two people. Definitely not an employee first culture. I've brought problems up with the manager concerning one supervisor in particular for the full year I worked there and never got closure on my concerns.

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.
