Dillard's reviews

Awful Benefits - low 401 (k) match, little vacation, no WFH roles, not great Health Care, only 6 holidays off Management has power hungry dictators who under pay employees, yell and scrutinize employees in front of their teams, rarely give raises (only when absolutely necessary to meet the cost of living), and pretty much get away with whatever they want. My manager literally brought alcohol to other employees on my team in the office where alcohol isn't allowed on the premises. Favoritism is a huge problem, and gender bias towards women. I've never seen any of the Dillard's family who works in the same building. They never go to any yearly events or send any notice of any kind showing they care about the employees. All events that I have attended are really low budget with little to no effort put into them. There is no HR here. There isn't a place to go when your manager mistreats you here. I started with 10+ colleagues, and several of us have been mistreated by our managers in different areas of the company, and some fired for made up reasons by the hiring manager. Although you will be taught some of the skills you need for your job before you start, Dillard's doesn't really have any training available to grow your skills. All college hires are put in a training class and expected to do code related work, regardless of the job they want when they finish. The Hiring Manager then decides what department everyone goes to, regardless of your past experience, major, and skills. For this reason, several people are stuck working in areas and doing jobs unrelated to their interest or skills. The technology here is very antiquated. You will not be able to work with new technology or convince others to do so. This company is run by an older generation for an older generation fan base, and has the mentality if it isn't broke don't fix it. Dillard's doesn't keep up with technology, they patch it and fix it to keep it running as long as possible, like COBOL. COVID-19: When hard times hit you lose your job. Dillard's furloughed hundreds of store employees, and several Corporate employees. When the recession hit several people were also laid off. There is no security in working here, because of poor money management, and the money hungry CEO.

You constantly stress yourself out to make your sales every day. You get into confrontations with your coworkers at least 3 times a week. Well, if you’re doing your job you are. If you don’t care about making your sales you get along more with everyone.
