Toys R Us Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"First full time job, was part time but moved up to full time. Work was relatively simple, nothing too hard, nothing too extravagant. Managers could of been a bit more polite to the people they need once something bad happens. Drivers treated us well. Fellow co workers are good people. Manager did best to work around personal schedule, including school schedule."

"I worked for this location for five years and in those years, growth was very slow. I'm not sure how managers think micro-managing is productive, but it's not. Employees were treated like drones more than people and the higher-ups were too concerned about sales figures instead of the quality of life. Two to three days a week on minimum wage for an adult is hardly an opportunity, but the culture saw that as serviceability. More consideration should be given to growing the brand."

"I've worked for Babies R Us since July 2011. I have had multiple assistant managers and store managers. They have all been wonderful, but at times hard to work for. That is to be expected at any job, however. It did take me two years to finally get offered a full time position, and when I finally did, I did not receive a raise. I do not feel that is fair because I am one of the hardest working employees in the store. I also have a position that is very vital to the company making sales."

You will be classified as a number and might as well learn to love it if you work there."
