productive workplace.
Overnight associate (Former Employee), Poughkeepsie, NY –
Typical night at work for me is i process the merchandise of the truck and put it out onto the sales floor for the next business day. what i learned from working here is to working by myself on projects and get them done in a timely matter. Management at this job was a fairly decent but usually help us when needed. i got along well with my co workers – more...  here and we always gave a helping hand when needed. the hardest part of the job was staying awake to finish the task. Not dealing with customers was the enjoyable part of this job. – less

Worst company to work for
Overnight Key holder (Current Employee), Poughkeepsie, NY –
Cons: no raise after 1 year, single digit penny raises after 2 years
No advancement. Store has been through 6 store managers in less than 3 years. Rude, selfish managers that blame their own mistakes on everyone else. Stay away!!!

It was a nice place to work.
CUSTOMER SERVICE REP (Former Employee), Paramus, NJ –
A typical day of work included alot of walking and restocking. I learned how to work long hours and through exhaustion. THe management was present but not really on top of you. Co-workers worked together quite well. the hardest part of the job was dealing with so many emotional people at one time. Most enjoyable part of the job was the holiday theme – more...  wich is my favorite time of year. – less

Fun work environment with great merchandise
Customer Service Supervisor (Current Employee), Fayetteville, NC –
Pros: great discount
Cons: short breaks
Daily supervision of customer service provided by customer service coordinator, cashiers, and customer service associates. Daily supervision of cash office procedures to include sweeps, deposit drops, and count down of tills. Hardest part of this job is dealing with different personalites, you never know how workers will come in feeling. Most enjoyable – more...  part is the discount in the store. – less

Call Center atmosphere..and it's the worst i've ever been a part of
Customer Service Representative (Current Employee), Middleboro, MA –
Pros: there are none
Cons: everything, it is not a good work environment.
I have worked in many different types of jobs out there, call centers, and corporate offices. When i got hired for this position, I was under the impression that I would be working for the Christmas Tree Shops. Little did I, and everyone else who was hired know, that this was Bed, Bath & beyond, who, unbeknownst to me..and probably everyone else, "owned" – more...  the Christmas Tree shops, along with Buy, Buy Baby, & Harmon Discount Stores. The training was 3 weeks long, and by someone who was from the "Corporate office" in New
Jersey. I,personally felt "duped" with regards to the actual type of job this would entail. The salary alone is not worth the "actual job description" that was perceived during training as well as during the actual interview process. I understood the reasoning of having a back ground check performed as well as the drug testing, but in all honesty, for the position that I currently hold, it is not worth the salary. I am thankful to have a job in this economy, and for that reason alone, I have continued to keep this job,however, I have continued to seek out other employment elsewhere. My expertise, knowledge and work experience, I feel, is not being utilized, and as a result, i am bored and feeling worthless in this environment. – less
