Pros

nice management staff, the discount is great!!!!!!

Cons

The pay for performance is a horrible way to base evaluations. I think it is so unfair to give people a raise when all they do all day for an eight hour shift is stand behind the register. while the others who do everything in there dept. get nothing. Why should we even try. I am at the point now where I have been to my manager and told her what is going on out on the sales floor, but there is not much she can do, so I think I should just stop caring as much because it gets me nowhere in this company. My parents raised me to work hard and earn my money. I think Belk needs to open up its eyes and look around or maybe get on this website and read how many people are not happy with this company. The work load I do not have a problem with that is part of the job. The problem I have is when you soley base my raise on how much I was supposed to sale, that is morally wrong.

Pros

I loved my job. I’m met so many wonderful people. And the associates couldn’t have been better.

Cons

I hurt myself and had to have surgery, and I was on Worker’s Comp. with limited availability. Because hours were short in operations, they made up this crazy position and wanted me to be ”lead” of the markdown team. I knew that meant for the most part to do go backs. I told them I wasn’t allowed to be on my feet that long and so she said they couldn’t accommodate me and I had to leave. And then the manager had the nerve to call their workers comp and told them I wasn’t coming into work. The management at that time was horrible. But there was a time when I first started working there that to store manager, and the assistant manager were wonderful. We were all so sad they left, but it didn’t take this new manager that I was talking about any time at all to lose almost the entire store associates.
