Pros

We are still Old Charm and Elegance. We as a company should consider more boutique style areas in our stores to make our customers feel more pampered. Compensation will come to the employees that truly appreciate being part of the Belk family.

Cons

As todays economy seems to expect more from everyone, I still would appreciate the good ole days when we had a team that set sales and took care of markdowns and markups.

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.
