Bealls reviews

initiatives change to frequently; you make as much or less than hourly associates when you work 60 hours a week or more which is all year, they under staff in all areas (because of budget) communication about merchandising and operations is spotty at best; emails are only answered by regionals when it is convenient; action is not taken until a figurative fire needs to be put out

Area (mid-level) managers were left to run the store in the absence of our store manager. She constantly came in late, left early - if she showed up at all. And, when we got a bad store review she wrote all of her mid-level managers up for not running the store right. WHAT???? Insanity. We (mid-level managers) had put up with a lot, but this just totally pushed us over the edge. I am absolutely disgusted with what we were put through. This company is totally unethical and unprofessional. I wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy. I feel sorry for the poor hourly people that work there. Morale is awful in the store. When I tried to bring up these issues to our corporate human resources office, I was interviewed by our regional operations manager at our store and was told "put my big girl britches on" and basically deal with it. I have never been around such unprofessional people in my entire 15+ years in retail management.
