We can finally accept debit cards as a form of payment when paying a Belk card account. I remember when we couldn't split payment using a third party cc even for purchases.
How many layers do we need?
Think of how much we would save if we got rid of the layers of management that are nothing but a burden. While we are closing stores and downsizing you won’t see upper management scaling down to fit the needs of the company. Any time cost cutting... — read more

Asset Protection Changes
I recently saw that #552 in Greenville was hiring for an 'AP Lead' despite there already being an APM in place when I left in February. Is AP undergoing restructuring in other stores or is it simply a title change?
Trying to look busy?
I find it funny that some colleagues try to look busy when the manager is around, and as soon as he is not there, they slack off to the maximum. Sometimes I think that I should also use this tactic because while I give my best all the time and in... — read more
Everything is easier when you have a good manager
I was relieved when SM who enjoyed belittling some of us went somewhere else. It was like a holiday. Only now do I see how much his behavior has affected the quality of our work. Before I didn’t have the will to work at all, in fact I barely worked... — read more
dillards is hiring!
dillards hired me on last week. $16.50 per hr. much more than belk. same rules pretty much about sales, credit, and being late, ect...much better custmer base. not the "$2" customer with a bad attitude and no money to spend.
Don't believe what they tell you....please, please, please.......
No stock in beauty/cosmetics is a sign the company is getting ready to fold. There are no other logical explanations for this. Also when big names such as Ralph Lauren, Chanel, Nautica, and Under Armor pull out that is the icing on a sh*t cake.
layers pf managers?
Can someone post the layers of managers from Store Manager all the way up to CEO, im just curious to see how many they have.
Understaffed, and WAY TOO MUCH MIDDLE MANAGEMENT (at Corp)
Multiple bosses who delight in pushing the work down three/four layers to us workers who are doing three people’s job to the point where none of our jobs even resemble what we signed up for. Get rid of the multiple management layers hire a few more... — read more
The same rules do not apply to everyone
How many times have you witnessed that the same rules do not apply to everyone at Belk? For something that a regular employee would normally get punished for, others simply get away with it. I hate such double standards. Those who get the worse end... — read more
opinion does anyone else think they are clearing out the wearhouse's of private lable merchandise as a strategic strategy
what i have read on here with some of the comments on only receiving private lable merchandise makes me wonder are they attempting to clear merchandise that no other company would what to buy like tjmaxx burlington ect products that are tied by name... — read more
GWP, Presell, PWP, Credits, and Emails, Oh My!
“Beauty advisors”- what’s going on in your store? Are you about ready to pull your hair out too? We have 2 people working during the week. One opens and one closes so there’s very little overlap. Majority of returns get sent to cosmetics dept. Having... — read more
What Do You Consider Quality Customer Service?
It's a shame Belk, and managers measure an associates worth, by a customer's willingness to give their personal data to Belk and third parties. How is obtaining emails, and selling a 29% interest rate credit card, considered quality customer... — read more
Don't let the door hit you
There is no point in complaining and wondering why some department is out of stock on something, why L’Oreal and other brands are pulling out of Belk... The inevitability is that Belk will sink and the only thing to think about is how to get out of... — read more
Tired of belk?? Find a new job! Everyone is hiring.
Lowe’s had a career fair a week ago, and guess what?! Myself and two other of my coworkers got hired! I’m left my “Lead” position, and getting hired at Lowe’s starting at $18! Also interviewed at Tj Maxx, got offered $16. A dollar more than Belk, but... — read more
I hate Belk so much...
Literally this place IS THE WORST. Our store manager sucks so bad and is also never there LOL! We never have stock in, and I’ve been written up twice because I’ve been late too many times. Why do these as-----s care if I’m late? I’m there LOL! I’m... — read more
Belk literally sucks.
Hey friends. So I seriously cannot take this place anymore. The store manager comes and goes as she pleases, is gone at least 3 days a week because she calls off, and literally sucks. The store manager even TEXTED a family member of mine who USED to... — read more
The harder you work, the less protected you are
Why does Belk always, ALWAYS punishes its best employees who work hard and who are the responsible ones by pushing us under the bus, be it with customers or by laying us off? Yet workers who are lazy, gossipy, and rude with customers and the rest of... — read more
Rating of 1-10
Without naming your location, rate your store from 1 (being the worst) to 10 (being the best) and why. I’ll start first. I'd rate my location as a 6. We seem to be way more unorganized after the layoffs that happened last year. We let go of... — read more
Getting rid off FT real fast
Well I got fired today for being late or calling out due to my cancer and aging parents........wow! Just WOW!
How do you manage to maintain a positive attitude?
Despite everything, I try not to become a completely bitter employee and maintain a positive attitude. Every day I try to find some motivation to work, so as not to fall into complete depression. However, it is very difficult when you see that many... — read more
You can not, or are not trying?
Working at Belk is a miserable feeling. I worked there until recently because I thought I couldn’t find a better job in this industry, primarily given my age, so I didn't even try. The first time I decided to dedicate myself to looking for a new... — read more
belks customers it must be hard Keeping up Appearances
it feels like belk has gone from richard and Hyacinth bucket grade customer to her sister Daisy and her husband onslow level. if you dont get what i mean then your missing out on a great show
Belk is nearing the end and even top brass are now not pretending it's going to survive.
Our RVP said Belk won't be around past 2022. The company is in it's "final phase" of life.
Who does Belk attract for $9 an hour?
describe the types of people working for $9/hr.
What after unemployment benefits end?
I apologize that the issue is not specifically related to Belk, but my father worked here, was laid off and will receive unemployment benefits for a little while longer. Due to his age and deteriorating health, he is unable to find a new job. After... — read more
How many different jobs are you doing?
The situation here has really become ridiculous. I do three different jobs at Belk. Do they really think this is normal? I absolutely think that it would be better for the company (and for everyone else) to hire more people, than to squeeze the... — read more
Do you confront difficult coworkers?
Working in this company is very stressful and it is understandable why everyone is a bit frustrated. However, this is still no excuse for my difficult coworkers. I definitely plan to inform HR, but I'm afraid that's not the best solution. I was... — read more
Facebook comments
Anyone else notice that their social media team is deleting all disparaging comments? Some threads leave the replies, but any (true) bad reviews and comments are being deleted
Any word if ELC Brands will last in Belk?
With no stock in top sku's and unable go item locate would this give us signs that these brands could be exciting as well?
Being scheduled excessive days in a row
My store keeps scheduling people 6-8 days in a row before we get a day off. They won't change it either when we point it out. We are all so burnt out. Anyone else have this going on?
having to ask permission to use restroom
my store is telling associates they have to ask before using the restroom. is anyone else experiencing this? i don't think grown adults need to ask to go to the restroom. we are not children.
We need more time off
Every single one of us full timers (but I'm thinking the same is true for part timers) needs three days off in a row every week to recover from the constant bu-----t we have to take here day in, day out. Maybe then some of the managers who spend... — read more
STM'S , MTM'S AND SOME STORE MANAGERS WILL BE GETTING THE AXE BY MID JUNE
Belk is "cleaning house" of store level management. Especially so-called "Dead weight" that are complacent, immobile, over payed, expect mass manager layoffs by mid June 2021 ranging from STM'S to store managers, even some RVP's are not safe.
How do Lisa Harper and Don Hendricks still have jobs?
Any time I've ever heard of a company filing bankruptcy, there was a major house cleaning starting at the top and yet, Belk filed for chapter 11 and neither Lisa Harper nor Don Hendricks were fired. They are the ones who are sinking this ship and... — read more
How many stores are downsizing management?
The store I’m in, along with several others in our region have been informed that we’re “over staffed” with salaried managers. The managers in question were originally told that no reductions would be happening except via promotion or attrition... — read more
