People review Walmart as a poor employer chreck out Ross Stores
Pros
Some fellow employees are great to work with. Busy never bored.
Cons
Terribly poor wages for expected hard work. Terribly poor hours for employees to make a living. Some of my fellow workers cannot afford a tv. Some have to quit or not show up for work because they cannot afford to put gas in their cars. Some are forced to live at home with their parents because they cannot afford to pay normal rent. Some of the older employees have to work two and three jobs to barely make ends meet. The only real benefit Ross offers is an employee discount on in-store purchases. Most employees cannot afford to take advantage of it. Hours are being cut so ROSS will not have to abide by the new government health regulations. Everyone will soon not be able to work more than 15 to 20 hours a week at $8-$9 per hour. There are very few full- time employees in Ross' Stores except for management. Training of new employees is not efficient so when new employees are placed in their new positions they have very little confidece. Most learn by their mistakes. When management visits whether it is the regional, district, security, or upper management, who fly in on their corporate jet, have very little good to say. In fact, they never say anything. In my store they can walk through and never acknowledge an employee except for the store managers. They do acknowledge those lower titled supervisors by telling them how to improve. Very seldom is praise given. My friend, when I tell him about my work day's experience , refers to my job as slave labor.
