      Pros

      A paycheck, saying that you were employed.

      Cons

      Ever since private equity bought them out back in 2015, the company has truly gone downhill. Everything from lack of communication throughout the company, to not taking care of employees with personal leaves of absence, it has been nothing but misery at Belk. Many stores have lost, on average, at least 2 to 3 million in sales, and thus less managers yet the same expectations. I wouldn't be surprised if Belk doesn't exist within the next year due to 1.1 billion in debt coming due in 2020. Also, schedules change on a whim so forget trying to book doctor's appointments, working 2nd or 3rd jobs or having a life. They expect you to be there period without any accommodation.

      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.
