Avantages

TCS has some great employees, so you're most likely going to be surrounded by people that you'll want to hang out with after work even after spending a whole shift together.

Inconvénients

Hard work is not rewarded in the company. Recognition is given to the people who can effectively use their "vocabulary" rather than those that have proven themselves as strong leaders and faithful employees. Throw around phrases like 'gumby' and 'second pair of eyes' and you'll gain more praise than if you actually work hard. While there's a constant stream of communication; e-mails, voicemails, newsletters...actual feedback can be pretty passive. I'm not sure if it was only my store, but there seemed to be a managerial mentality to let someone else deal with it. Foundation training consists of a week long group training to instill the TCS mentality, and full-time opportunities are boasted as the incentives to being a strong employee, yet when a position for full-time opens, it is filled by an outside applicant, rather than through promotion. And unless you are full-time, your hours are not going to be consistent. In fact, during the holiday season TCS cut hours of part-timers while hiring new staff to cover for the holiday rush.

Avantages

Everyone from director level on down in my department was great. Very collaborative. Gave you autonomy to do and try new things.

Inconvénients

Where do I start…Sr. Leadership is TERRIBLE. I mean absolutely horrific. No direction and plans were changing at the drop of a dime after the BB&B “merger”. You could feel the shift in the culture, just NASTY attitudes and taking the employees for granted. The new CEO and the rest of Sr. level execs acted like everyone was just expendable workhorses. They touted reopening the headquarters cafe as some awesome benefit so they could bring people back to the office full time. If you’re going to be bullish and require everyone back, have some guts and just do it. But don’t act like a cafe is some life changing benefit to get everyone excited. Anyway, blind leading the blind. The merit increase or raises - non existent. No 401k match. Nothing positive because the company is so broke. The new store concept sounds a mess. Save yourself and don’t even apply, let alone accept an offer. Joel Bines is no longer the CEO. He was a great guy and I think he had great ideas. Marcus Lemonis is the new CEO and I would give him a thumbs down.
