Pros

Own paced work, discounts, really nice co workers.

Cons

THANKSGIVING used to be a holiday for family. While the CEOs and Belk owners enjoy their turkey dinner with their families they expect their sales teams to work 10 hour days to 1am the next morning to make a buck. Belk does not care for their employees enough to give them one day, a national holiday, to spend with their families. This is total disrespect for employees. It won't be long before these department stores are open for Christmas too.

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.
