Awful place to work. No heart beat. None of the management or the employees act happy. Overworked and underpaid. - Cosmetics Sales Associate Belk Employee Review

Pros

Learned a lot about how to overcome obstacles because their are many. There are plenty of hours for full time cosmetic associates. Uniforms are provided. Associate discount is generous.

Cons

Very difficult to get things done. Old registers and technology makes it difficult to clientele and get item locator sales. Have to use your personal cell phone on the job to look up information constantly and the company has no reimbursement program for this. Too much work load and never enough staff when needed.

Pros

I loved my job. I’m met so many wonderful people. And the associates couldn’t have been better.

Cons

I hurt myself and had to have surgery, and I was on Worker’s Comp. with limited availability. Because hours were short in operations, they made up this crazy position and wanted me to be ”lead” of the markdown team. I knew that meant for the most part to do go backs. I told them I wasn’t allowed to be on my feet that long and so she said they couldn’t accommodate me and I had to leave. And then the manager had the nerve to call their workers comp and told them I wasn’t coming into work. The management at that time was horrible. But there was a time when I first started working there that to store manager, and the assistant manager were wonderful. We were all so sad they left, but it didn’t take this new manager that I was talking about any time at all to lose almost the entire store associates.
