Bealls reviews

When I started working at Bealls fresh out of college, I truly thought I had hit the jackpot--I mean, who wouldn't want to be surrounded by clothes and trendy people all day? The problems are the lack of development for people who want and deserve it, the shameless, blatant favoritism shown toward employees that become besties with their bosses, the dictator-like leading style displayed by very upper-management, the hours (you are expected to work well over 40 hours a week-one of my bosses worked 60+ hours a week buying one of the smallest areas in the company), the archaic systems that are in-place, the filthy working conditions (dust, boxes, and samples are everywhere), and the lack of any real desire to change any of the problems-this last one resulting in the lowest company morale possible and everyone hating the time that they have to spend here. Management will listen to your ideas and concerns and promise change, but they won't deliver on anything. The majority of Buyers are catty and incredibly passive-aggressive. People that deserve a chance to be promoted or moved to their desired area are told to "keep doing what you're doing and you'll get there," but end up leaving the company because they get sick of waiting and overlooked by management. Between my dissatisfaction with the actual job, the blatant favoritism shown toward certain employees, my poor relationship with my boss, and the lack of development I was receiving from all sides, I felt that it was very unfair for me to put my time and energy into a company that could not even give me the time of day, so that is why I eventually decided to take my talents elsewhere. I may sound like a disgruntled employee, but at one point, I thought that I would work for Bealls for the rest of my life. Surfing my time at Bealls, I watched morale hit rock bottom because of experiences like mine. People that want to work hard and develop are pushed to the side to make room for people that are upper-management favorites

The character limit prevents me from providing an adequate overview of the numerous glaring deficiencies at this "business." If you're educated and ambitious, please don't waste your time.
