Pros

Cosmetics. It's hard to get a job at a cosmetics counter, and I was pretty excited to land one. I know a lot of aspiring make up artists want a counter job.

Cons

The credit goals are terrible. I feel like I am taking advantage of people every time. No one wants this card except for stupid people who already have bad credit. In order to reach goals many employees would trick customers into thinking that they were paying with their own debit card, and only APPLYING for the card, not charging their purchase on it. Completely, totatlly unethical.

Pros

discount on merchandise, clean working environment, discounts from other mall stores to belk employees, closed on national holidays which is good.

Cons

Managers routine often changes leaving the sales staff confused as they dont know who to be reached when they need them. Upper mngt is very bossy and no sick days.
