Fun place to work but management was terrible
Cash Office Associate/Customer Service (Former Employee) – Ashburn, VA – January 23, 2013
I would come in and count the drawers from the previous night. Order money for the week. Count the safe and do deposits. I also did product replenishment and inventory loss prevention. Recovery was done at the end of every night and the store cleaned before anyone could leave. The management was not organized and many times we were short handed due to people calling in and no one coming in to replace them. Co-workers didnt like the job but we loved each other. The most enjoyable was the customer service counter. I got to work with the best we had there and help implement new Operation procedures.
Pros
great breaks
Cons
terrible management

Sales Associate/Cashier (Current Employee) – Pittsburgh, PA – November 20, 2018
Ross Dress For Less has fought me how to deal with the general public and has brought me to speak to people I don't know. Being a cashier made me learns how to help people I didn't previously know.
Pros
Half hour for lunch, employ of the moth
Cons
Only one cashier usually (stressful)
Very productive work place and very good people to work with.

Associate (Former Employee) – North Myrtle Beach, SC – November 20, 2018
The most enjoyable part of the job were the customers and working with other associates. Hardest part of the job was too many Chiefs and not enough Indians. Time constraints are rarely obtainable.
Decent first retail experience
Retail Associate (Current Employee) – California – November 20, 2018
I worked at two different locations for Ross. The first one had great management and a friendly atmosphere. Very flexible and accommodating, great first retail part-time job. Unfortunately the same can't be said for the second store's experience. Friendly co-workers and management, but poor work ethic and unreliable management. Like most chain stores, a lot of it is dependent on the personal staff working there. But I would still recommend it, if just for it's flexibility and simplicity.
Pros
Flexibility, laid-back environment
Cons
You have to hope the best for the kind of staff you're working with
Pay for Less
Part time Retail Associate (Current Employee) – Taylorsville, UT 84123 – November 19, 2018
Management is very nice but even though we got extra raise this year pay still pretty low and corporate office is always requesting to cut payroll so the store is always short staff and you got paid less.

My experience
Area Supervisor / Manager on Duty (Former Employee) – Virginia – November 19, 2018

Pros
Great team

Fun workplace
Sales Associate (Former Employee) – Harlingen, TX – November 19, 2018
Fast workplace and constant cleaning and organizing. Learned that no matter how much you tidy up you'll never finish. Management is great, they encourage you to move up and push you in doing better. Hardest part is seeing how careless and ugly most people are, but at the end of the day enjoying that you get to go home with your monsters and relax.
Pros
Fun and encouraging in making yourself better
Cons
cleaning up after others

Pros
merchandise discounts, flexible schedules
Cons
timed on how quick you checkout customers in line, lots of merchandise to keep straightened

Young Managers like to micromanage
Sales Associate (Former Employee) – Geneva, IL – November 17, 2018
I was working for Ross as a seasonal part time employee. Figured I'd pick up extra cash for the holiday season. However, the managers made it increasingly impossible to enjoy your job. As soon as I clock into work. They're repeatedly telling me to clean up a certain section of the store. Keep in mind, I'm already working on a section but they're breathing down your throat to ensure you're being productive. Very young managers that don't have a clue about fairly treating their employees as human beings. Finally I had enough of the micromanaging. I already have a full time job and coming into Ross makes the first gig feel like a cake walk. I HIGHLY suggest finding a p/t job elsewhere.
Pros
Discounts
Cons
Micromanaging, favortism
overall fast pace job
retail sales associate (Current Employee) – Miami, FL – November 16, 2018
Ross store wise is a great place I just feel the associates aren't respected or rewarded for what they put up with from customers, the management team focuses on who's telling on someone rather than fixing issues
Pros
work environment is ok
Cons
poor management
Extreme over processed corporate nonsense. Horrid Management
Loss Prevention Agent/ Stock Room Associate (Former Employee) – Wichita, KS – November 16, 2018
Very disappointing, they promise the moon and stars, insane, robotic, cyclical, redundant processes. Poor critical thinking management. Cutthroat, Warpath Management. Favoritism, arbitrary, biased and sexist views. It took me two and a half months to get hired, was hired for one position with pay rate and employment, only to be robbed of this position and sidelined due to biased management attempting to deter me from being hired.
Pros
Neat store from a customer POV
Cons
I felt very scrutinized for my sex. It is a female dominated company.
