All The Container Store openings, sorted by pay

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.

The Container Store pay from our research

Our researched figure (stated by the company, checked 30 Oct 2026) is Stated per posting. The outside sales and design consultant has the only commission plan: every posting for it states a paid training period of several weeks, then a yearly base draw and uncapped commission, and quotes a top-end take-home figure, while its own overview calls the same pay a base salary with a ramp-up period and a monthly bonus tied to sales. In-store designer and sales specialists and part-time sales leaders are paid by the hour; postings in some states (California, Minnesota, Virginia) print an hourly band, those elsewhere name no figure, none mentions commission or a sales bonus for these seats, and the specialist posting says hours are given based on performance. Ask an outside consultant's recruiter whether the draw is recoverable against commission, how the monthly payout is calculated, how long the ramp lasts and how company leads are split across the team, and ask whether mileage is reimbursed on a role with a wide travel radius; for an in-store seat, ask whether custom space sales carry any spiff and how many hours a week the store actually schedules.
