  • Five Reasons to Work Seasonally at TCS

    We’re hiring for seasonal positions in our distribution center and all our stores across the country to help our customers during the busy holiday season and our annual elfa Sale in January. Why consider working at The Container Store during the holidays? We recently asked some of our current seasonal employees to share why they chose to pursue a role with us…Seasonal employees get the same discount that full and part time employees receive! (50% off elfa and 40% off all other merchandise!) “We

  • Embrace the Spirit of Giving

    We’re kicking off our second annual Holiday Hugs drive to benefit children staying in hospitals this holiday season. “Every holiday season, The Container Store embraces the spirit of giving by helping those in need in our local communities,” said Chief Executive Officer, Melissa Reiff. “Imagine how difficult it would be if your child, or a child in your life, had to spend the holiday season in the hospital.

Last month, our Co-Founder and Chairman Kip Tindell joined a group of 75 business, thought and academic leaders at the White House to discuss the benefit of a more long-term approach to business. During the meeting, he said, “Building a business is a lot like a family farm; the things that you do for the soil today, help you 10 and 20 years down the

  • Dreaming BIG. Winning BIG!

    It’s fair to say we’re passionate about the retail industry. No other industry in the world provides the same variety of careers and employs students, teachers, tech gurus, marketing geniuses, fashionistas, and retirees; while simultaneously driving our country’s economy. So it makes perfect sense that we’re also passionate about the Dream BIG Scholarship from the National Retail Federation and the University of Phoenix, that aims to help current retail employees further their educations and

  • Improving Trust

    Our guest blogger and friend, Bethany Hilton, joins us again for a follow up to her recent post about her choice to seek work at a conscious company. I recently had the privilege of writing a blog post called Finding a Company that Shares My Values in which I discussed the process I went through to search for a job based on the company rather than the job description. When readers asked me why shared values were so important to me, I was thrilled to sit down and put my thoughts in writing. As
