Pros
Flexible work schedule, ok benefits package. The co workers are some of the best people I have ever met, and we will remain close even though I'm not there.Belk does a lot of community service events which is a decent thing.I've worked for larger retailers and found that Belk has a close knit family feel, particularly amongst sales staff. We would often have store "parties" for the customers with music, food, etc. for sales events.
Cons
Not enough floor coverage most days. Employees end up working all over the store. Low pay, no raise if you don't meet Belk charge card quota. There are some very talented sales people there, but management doesn't utilize them properly. Staff is generally over worked and understaffed. Staff spends time outside of their designated departments, to cover other areas, leaving their department uncovered. Customers are often frustrated because they can't find anyone to ring them up.
