The Container Store
The Container Store, Galleria Mall, Dallas Texas, April 2017Courtesy of Aggie Brooks/Container Store
Employees are (literally) invested in this storage retailer, holding a big chunk of its shares. That goes both ways, say staffers, who praise "outstanding" communication, pay that’s well above the industry’s average, and "amazing" benefits (even for part- timers)—all part of how the company brings its “conscious capitalism” ethos to life.
