Pros

Comeptitive compensation is the only pro

Cons

This was an extremely toxic work environment where I felt belittled and demeaned. I was micro managed and had no decision making power even though I had previous outside Ross retail experience. Upper management has unrealistic expectations and poor communication skills. Systems and thought processes are out dated and ancient. Feedback is not welcome, instead you are encouraged to “Ross-size” and mold to a certain way of thinking. I do not recommend working here.

Pros

All of my coworkers were wonderful. No high school drama. Boss was flexible and understanding, although he always liked it if you said you could work more hours. The employee discount is pretty awesome. The work wasn't bad and rude customers were rare.

Cons

There was pressure to come in even when you were sick. Pay wasn't the greatest; it usually stayed ahead of minimum wage, but by no means kept up with inflation. Visits from corporate often meant a new change in procedures that had been working and demands that were somewhat unreasonable given the constraints of the layout or number of employees available.
