Pros

Fair pay, easy work, pretty accommodating with hours, good position for a high school or college student

Cons

Management was worried about everything but associates and customers. I worked for Belk on two separate occasions. The first time was in 2016 and most of the managers were very organized and helpful. I worked for the same Belk again in 2020 and some of the managers I had previously worked with left. It was a mess - the managers (old and new) hardly ever answered their phones so as an associate you were forced to make a decision that was above your pay grade or keep customers in line waiting, for who knows how long, trying to get a hold of manager

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.
