JCPenney reviews

Management only cares about getting icaps (credit applications), to the point that the managers and supervisors resort to coercing/harassing customers into applying for them. They ask for your availability but will schedule you when you aren't available; then write you up as a "failure to report" even after you've told them you can't work at a certain time. The pay is low and the hours are inconsistent. One week you'll have 30 hours, the next, maybe 19; which makes it hard to count on a normal paycheck. Even though you are supposed to legally get at least a 15 minute break during your shift, no one is there to relieve your spot and management is annoyed when you ask for one. But hey, it's retail.

The corporate office decides and hire which positions require a college degree, but majority of upper management have been with the company for decades and don’t appreciate having more recently or highly educated people below them.
