      "Flexible but boring"

      I have been working at Marshalls part-time (More than a year)

      Pros

      Extremely flexible scheduling, easy to request time off, easy to find someone to cover your shifts, good coworkers, and reasonable hours

      Cons

      Cranky customers, Marshalls is a shoplifting hub, boring, you only get 1 15 minute break if your shift is under 6 hours, highly understaffed

      Advice to Management

      create a way to put our schedules online, switch shifts online, and communicate with other associates online. This would make covering shifts and scheduling much easier for the associates. Also, having just one person in each department is not enough. Having 2-3 people on the floor just for recovery would make Marshalls a way better store.

      I have been working at Marshalls full-time (More than 3 years)

      Pros

      Flexible hours.
      Ever-changing environment.
      Upper management supplies treats/food & activities as rewards for reaching goals: as well as gift cards & doodads.
      Lots of benefits for full time associates: PTO, vacation & sick days, insurance, wage increases, etc.
      Friendly environment per associate.
      Day to day schedule changes as does shift activity.
      Managers have open door policy.
      Managers let all associates feel like they are essential to the store & how it is doing.
      10% discount- 20% special occasions.

      Cons

      Pro & con: inconsistant stock- so we never know what's in the store or what will be in the store. So it is frustrating to us and customers. But exciting.
      Policies are constantly changing.
      Micro-managed depending on supervisors.
      Too many supervisors- sometimes multiple managers and coordinators and everyone wants different results daily.
      Unrealistic goals to meet quotas: freight pushed, credit card goals.
      Forced to push credit card daily.
      Training is not consistent across the board- you have to learn on the job.
      Limited full time positions- only a few in store including coordinators. So that means if you were hired part time you can't get promoted unless a full time associate decides to step down or leave, which is rare.
       Managers are constantly hiring new employees at the cost of long time associates not getting hours.
      Schedule can be inconsistent. Every week is different.
      A lot of times you are forced to work in areas that you have no training in, and you juggle between different tasks simultaneously.
      Long term employees will get treated above their pay grade- like coordinators or MOD's even if they are not.

      Advice to Management

      Stay consistant with training, priorities, and attitudes.
      Employees are happiest when they are treated with respect and on a stable ground.
      Pushing credit cards can get out of hand.

      Pros

      The management treats everyone fairly and with respect. For a minimum wage type position, it has good benefits and a flexible work schedule. Additionally, there are 20% off days and fun promotional items that you can win for performance.

      Cons

      The hourly wage doesn’t go up much each year. After being there for 5 years, it only went up $1.25 per hour.
