Ross Dress For Less Employer Reviews

Ross is absolutely the worst company to work for period! The management team treats their employees like modern day slaves! The starting pay is $7.50. You work long, hot hours and are forced to complete task that you were not properly trained for and are constantly being yelled at because the job you weren't trained for wasn't done properly. The co-workers – more...  were okay, but most of the co-workers behavior were very inappropriate for the work place! The hours were short (maybe 13 minimum and 20 maximum). – less

It is a fun environment where everyone gets along and where everyone helps each other. I learned to work in a faster pace since you get timed so your able to get everything out on time. The managers will help and are understanding. All the co-workers were extremely friendly. The hardest part of the job is to get everything out from the truck and from – more...  the stockroom to the floor before doors open. – less

this job is alot of younger people so it seems like people come and go alot it is not a forever job.

I have had a great time working with this company. I have learned alot and still learning more every day.

At Ross i have gained great customer service skills. Postive attitudes are throughtout the store from management down. The best part is being able to put a smile on each customer face with assisting them with any concerns or questions they may have.

Very poor management. underpaid for the volume of work and responsibility.

I would clock in and go straight to my manager to see where i would be working that day. I learned how to use the cash register there and how to work fitting room. I also learned how to take sensors off clothes. My managers were nice and always there when i needed a question answered. As for my co-workers, i made some great friends there and they were – more...  a big help when i needed it. The hardest part for me was picking up clothes that were dropped and then going back 10 mins later and more clothes were dropped. Most enjoyable would have to be working fitting room. – less

Great products and deals but lacks organization. Overall good company to work for.

It is a traditional retail environment. The expectation that you live to work is alive and well at this company, especially at the higher levels within the organization. The company takes the discount retailer to heart and you are treated that way. Are there opportunities? Yes, but are you willing to sell your soul and dumb your self down to be successful? – more...  Those are 2 questions I would answer, before taking a job here. – less

A typical day for me starts off by reading the previous day’s log, confirming all staff that is scheduled to work on that given day. Check in the manager on duty to confirm the schedule for that day. Once completed, I fill out daily log information. Check all security tools, alarm systems, camera angles etc. Throughout the day I observe shoppers and – more...  monitor for suspicious behavior detour shoplifters and make needed stops of confirmed shoplifters, notify police authorities when needed, maintain all security reports and logs. – less

everything is fun at ross and you get great employee discounts

pick and pack products before the other worcker packing to send to the Ross stores

The most enjoyable part of my job is dealing with the customers. I adore my customers - even the difficult ones, and I believe they enjoy me. I have my regulars, too. Management has changed 3 or 4 times since I started 9 months ago, so it is very difficult to get a read on what we are really all about. Our employees work SO hard and for such low pay, – more...  that the turnover is truly insane. Five people quit in one day a couple of weeks ago. Our new hires do not last more than one or two days. The basic problem is that corporate management expects us to complete unrealistic goals on a daily basis with practically no personnel.

I do NOT work there for the money. I work there for my customers and associates. – less

The most enjoyable aspect of the job is the opportunity to build career relationships with peers and customers. If customers are treated well in a friendly environment they will remain loyal.

A typical day was heading to the Front Customer Service Desk and handling the sales and returns transactions. Also maintaining a neat and orderly appearance of the area.
I learned about using a cash register, ticketing items, loss prevention and providing great customer service.
Managers were all fun to work with and were fair to everyone.
The co-workers – more...  I worked with were enthusiastic and liked to get things done right.
The hardest part was the occasional demanding customer.
The most enjoyable was hearing how happy a customer was that they found that certain item. Also, hearing from the customer about what a nice, clean and orderly store we had. – less

I constantly handled a high volume of customers while maintaining compentency and efficency. The hardest part of the job was effectively explaining company policies to customers. Althought this was difficult it was also one of the most enjoyable parts of the job because I loved negotiating and working with customers. Due to the high volume of customers – more...  I learned how to quickly scan, bag,and proccess payments while providing excellent customer service – less

Ross is good for people that need a flexible schedule, The Management don't really manage though so the associates are left trying on their own. If you are looking to move up in a company they will do it but you you will still be making the same pay. (min wage) There is no sense of structure and there is ABSOULTLY no repermanding of associates that – more...  leave work because they are mad or don't show up at all. The older associates are left to training and designating lunches, breaks and what areas need to be cleaned. So basically I ended up a supervisior without the raise. Oh and im sure my boss has taken money out of my check after i worked the hours. Make sure if your working here you write down every single day you worked. – less

Unload freight from truck place out in store. not enough hours nor pay for the work load. discount in store

Store managers are obtuse brown-nosers, the company itself is all about the bottom line. It cares little ablaut its customers and less about its employees. All stores are under staffed with overworked minimum wage employees, corporate always on managers to cut payroll, and customer service pays the price. Customers will put up with anything if the prices – more...  are low. – less

Horrible experience, hated every moment of it. Management mediocre and they treat you badly ad unfair..
