Pros

Good sales and employee double discount days make purchasing designer clothes at a great bargain. great fellow employees.

Cons

When I started working there the store manager was a great guy who was out on the floor working and getting to know his staff and was easy to communicate with and willing to listen to new ideas. Then the management changed and the current manager is very easy to find since he is always in his office. Usually with the one male STM who is his minion. Miss my friends but do not miss the insane hours, (either too much or too little) the constant credit push and absent management and unrealistic goals.

Pros

I have met some really interesting people, and some good connections to get out of Belk.

Cons

Not enough help, management is petty, associates are even pettier, unrealistic expectation of daily maintenance, no real bonus structure for anyone under store manager level. There is no tuition reimbursement program, HR doesn't take complaints seriously, extremely high rate of turnover
