Pretty solid part time job, Would recommend if you are great in terms of customer service and love clothing brands.
|
|
There is commission on sales which is pretty nice.
|
None so far besides low hours but thats probably because I am still in training.

No pay increase.

Meeting great people who are usually underserved due to their size and weight, and making them feel goo and look great.
|
Commission in smaller volume stores suck. Hard to make bonus. Staff is slim and theft is high. Usually, only one person works at a in a smaller store and this affects sales.

A 23-Year Journey with DXL: A Testament to Growth, Culture, and Commitment
|
|
As I celebrate my 23rd year with DXL, I find myself reflecting on the remarkable journey I've been privileged to embark on with this exceptional company. From its humble beginnings as Casual Male to its current status as a thriving $550 million enterprise, DXL has not only grown in size but has also fostered an environment of inclusivity, camaraderie, and unparalleled dedication to customer satisfaction.
Throughout my tenure, I have witnessed firsthand the transformative evolution of DXL. What began for me as a temporary position with Casual Male has flourished into a prominent industry player, setting benchmarks for innovation and excellence. This growth trajectory stands as a testament to the visionary leadership and unwavering commitment of every individual associated with the company.
One of the most rewarding aspects of my time at DXL has been the opportunity to work alongside a number of extremely talented and dedicated professionals. The people at DXL aren't just colleagues; they're family. Their passion, creativity, and resilience have not only propelled the company forward but have also created a supportive and nurturing work environment where every voice is valued, and every idea is embraced.
Moreover, DXL's commitment to fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion sets it apart as a beacon of progressiveness in the corporate landscape. Regardless of background or experience, every employee is afforded equal opportunities for growth and advancement, fostering a culture of empowerment and belonging.
Beyond its internal dynamics, DXL's unwavering dedication to customer satisfaction has been the cornerstone of its success. By prioritizing the needs and preferences of its diverse customer base, DXL has not only earned their loyalty but has also established itself as a trusted partner in their journey towards self-expression and confidence.
As I look back on my 23 years with DXL, I am filled with gratitude for the experiences, relationships, and opportunities it has bestowed upon me. My journey with DXL has been nothing short of extraordinary, and I am proud to have been a part of its remarkable growth story.
In conclusion, DXL isn't just a company; it's a community—a community built on a foundation of passion, integrity, and a shared commitment to excellence. As I celebrate 23 years of employment with DXL, I am excited to see what the future holds for DXL and honored to continue contributing to its legacy of success.
|
Before DXL, I navigated through large companies and prestigious law firms, enduring impersonal and draining workplaces. DXL's standout feature is its commitment to work-life balance. Here, there's no downside—just a nurturing environment where employees flourish.

Overall not a bad place to work
|
|
My team was amazing. My store manager was seriously the best manager I've ever had. The benefits were pretty good. I overall enjoyed the job itself and helping the customers. Definitely not the worst retail job I've had.
|
The company doesn't care too much about their employees. They wouldn't let us hire cashiers or stock associates at our store and instead made all of the commission sales people do all of the work. Before Covid our store had around 12-14 employees and after we were running the store with 4. Made for a bad work/life balance as I always felt overworked as we were doing everything in the store while also trying to sell and give our customers a good experience. I will admit the commission was nice with less sales associates but it got very tiring and exhausting trying to keep up with everything. When we asked for more help they said they would only hire a cashier or stock person for us if they were also on commission. Making us have to split our commission instead of having hourly cashiers and stock associates like pre Covid times. You could tell that they realized after Covid lay offs that they could get away with having less employees and working us harder. They just care about numbers and making money instead of giving their employees a good work balance. But what can you expect from corporate America?

My store manager was amazing but the district manager was very negative and only had bad things to say. They cared more about profit and numbers than supporting the employees they have.

Was a great workplace but.....
|
|
My store was slow so the day to day wasn't bad
My co-workers were excellent
My clientele was great
|
Terrible commision %
My store specifically had almost no back room at all so distribution was terrible.
The company bascially dumped everyone once the pandemic hit
Big and tall is available online and the in store customer is more rare then the online pick up, so there is less of a chance to upsell.

Great place to work
|
|
-Home Office has partially remote (office 2x/week) options for most office positions.
-Generous time off packages and competitive benefits (cost of medical has not increased in 6 years)
-Recently expanded bonus program
-Strong leadership that has successfully weathered the post-pandemic storm in a tough retail industry, maintaining strong financial standing
-Stores: operating hours are 10a-7p; no late nights in retail!
-Commissioned associates on average are making $4-$5 hour more above their base pay rates
-Plan to grow more retail locations
|
Retail is a tough environment in the current economy. Staffing is tight in our retail locations (but store hours are very reasonable).

We're very thinly staffed in a lot of areas. It's important to be budget-conscious but equally important not to burn out your associates. Investing in the right bodies (or systems/applications) to get the work done will pay for itself.
