Night Auditor/Front Desk (Current Employee), Middletown, NY –
Pros: customer experience, prizes for making goals, teamwork
Cons: minimal compensation
Dressbarn is a fantastic company to work for. They believe in all of their associates and well as putting a focus on the customer experience. The customers of dressbarn are regularly shopping in their local stores, as well as finding new dressbarns in new locations or even when they go on vacation. This shows they feel valued and prefer to shop with – more...  dressbarn. I hope to find a company that are just as focused on the customer and associate. – less

The customers and compansation made the job worth coming to work.
Full Time Assistant Manager (Former Employee), Smithfield, NC –
A typical day at work was to unlock the door, shut off alarm and count the opening drawers. After that, I set goals for the sales associates and immidiately start doing tasks emailed from District Manager. I learned to keep a straight face during any conflicts and come up with solutions as quickly as possible without any emotions interferring. The most – more...  enjoyable part of my job was the position itself and the customers. – less

I am currently employed part-time, therefore I can not give Dress Barn an overall rating. For the sake of markings being requested before I am allowed to leave the page, I will mark the center star for average.
