Family atmosphere, great coworkers Good Benefits Promotion from within
Cons
HR is a joke. Impossible to fire an employee that is not performing to even the lowest standards. Jump through all necessary hoops and still don't get the backing you need. Belk conducts associate surveys and claims to care about associates and managers. Very little of the feedback is acted on. Associates are given lip service for in store issues, especially if the store manager is the problem. Retail schedules are brutal (many people don't realize how many hours are actually worked by management)
