RecommendsPositive OutlookNo opinion of CEOPros
I absolutely enjoyed my internship experience! The internship program is very well organized and they really do take care of their interns. In the short 10 weeks, I can confidently say that the internship experience prepared me for what it means to be a retail leader and manage a multi-million dollar store. I gained a better insight into managing an entire store of staff and merchandise, theft prevention, HR, hiring and onboarding, product placement and other related topics. Overall, great experience.
Cons
The only con is that you might work with and management unprofessional or unmotivated staff members. This can at times feel like babysitting. Other than that, I would say the experience was pretty great.

Works with my school schedule and the job isn't all that difficult. I love all my managers!

Customers have to be the worst part. They tend to think less of ross employees, I guess because it's a discount store..
