Pros

Fair salaries and a true set of objective incentives for successful sales staff and supporting non sales staff to grow their income quickly.

Cons

Favoritism among management and upper management at store level is rampant and can hinder good management progress. Pay parity among the sexes is unfair

Pros

Something to do for a short time. Can make money on commision if customers come in store. Some flexability on hours.

Cons

Bad time policy. More concerned about being late than anything else. Sales goals unrealistic for full time employees. If no customers in store you were still responsible for sales. Favortism for certain employees even if drunk on sales floor or late way beyond policies enforced on other employees.

Ops Manager Stronger Than Manager

Pros

Will be listen to even if advice not taken. Most Asst Managers are competant and work hard. Most of the associates are friendly.

Cons

The Operations Manager often pushes the Store Manager to do necessary work. Hard to keep Asst. Managers in certain departments like shoes and cosmetics. Corporate does not advertise or offer coupons like Macy's or Belk so Dillard's is at a disadvantage. Benefits could be better.
