Pros

The Bistro is nice but that's it

Cons

Everything. Management will lie to fire you. Leadership does not support their people it's all about throwing someone under the bus even if you aren't honest. They will blatantly treat you unfairly and disrespectfully in front of an entire department with no shame or hesitation. If you want to be cussed and belittled and almost to the point of harassment then this company is for you. There is absolutely no accountability for leadership and it's all politics in the buddy system as most of them are not even qualified to work in the industry. Most of the people there have only worked at Dillard's their entire lifetime and have built a system of untouchable veterans that are allowed to break all policies without anyone blinking an eye. If someone knew were to follow their teams behaviors they would be immediately fired because policies are not policies unless they are needed to reprimand someone. They choose when these things apply and they only apply if you have rubbed one of the long-term management Personnel the wrong way. Being a victim of slander, discrimination, verbal abuse, public humiliation, bullying, medical discrimination and retaliation is never a good thing. When you spend years doing that and are fired for things that your other teammates are not fired for and are not against policy and we're not a problem previously for you is embarrassing. But the gossip and intentional harassment should be illegal. Don't count on any support from management. Don't count on fairness. Only work here if you have to have a job and then leave as soon as possible before it ruins you and you don't even want to work in the field anymore. That's the nicest thing I can say.

Pros

I gained good customer service and problem solving experience while working here. You learn how to multitask under pressure. I also gained experience gift wrapping(I found out I enjoy this part of the job a lot), shipping orders, and overall in store functions. I met many supportive and enjoyable coworkers while working here as well as memorable customers.

Cons

The main Cons of working here were: -Chronic understaffing -Too many responsibilities expected from one associate -Feeling unsupported by main management - Hard work and extra effort often goes unrecognized - High stress due to unrealistic workload expectations - Limited opportunities for actual feedback to management to actually improve
