  • 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

  • Finding a Company that Shares My Values

I have grown up with The Container Store, as both of my parents have worked at the company for a combined 40 years. My father is the Store Facilities Director and my mother is the Logistics Director.

  • An Intern’s Perspective of a Conscious Company

    This summer, as I began my work at The Container Store, I was excited for so many reasons. First, as every employee who works here has at some point probably expressed, I have always loved The Container Store. Going to The Container Store, before I even knew about what a great company it is, has always been a deeply therapeutic experience, from the unforgettably helpful employees to the clean, bright aisles and products. Second, having been exposed to the basics of Conscious Capitalism and
