nobody has mentioned on here that if an associate or manager quits they are not being replaced, another red flag this bus is gonna crash.

I've been an STM since 2013 and have noticed that store managers have less accountability and more free rein to do what they want than in the past. Our store manager can work shorter shifts than the sales associates and nothing ever seems to happen... — read more

i'm heartbroken at what has become of Belk. why in the world are they destroying the company like this?

Belk corporate, did it ever occur to you, these associates are the ones, you solely depend on, where would you be without them?

Customers seem completely different to me and are certainly much less numerous than they were before. Some have absolutely no empathy so it is not possible to give them the best possible service they want because there are simply not enough of us... — read more 

Some people speculate that we might hear the news of company’s liquidation very soon. I don’t have any more reliable insights, I’ve only heard speculations that it might happen. Any thoughts?

I don't need any information about the company's business or some insider news to know that this is coming to an end. The situation in my store is so bad that everything has become visibly clear. I wish I got laid off earlier so I don't have to watch... — read more 

What keeps you here?

As I’m sitting here on my lunch break, I keep thinking about how nice it would be to just leave and never come back. A weight lifted off my shoulders. As of today, one associate quit after her shift on Saturday, another’s last day was Sunday, and 3... — read more 

With this sudden change in staffing, and store operations, its obvious that Belk is near the end. No staff, closeout merchandise from Ross, A total shift in customer base, it's a wrap guys..

People don't quit a job, they quit a boss. This is the way it is in most cases. I worked here for many years, the job was hard but I accepted it and adjusted. However, after I got a new manager, I don’t want to stay here anymore. He’s the biggest... — read more 

My RVP Candidly tells me this centralization of registers, streamlining of merchandise, and downsizing of employee coverage is Belk’s “last ditch effort” to save a failing business. If this does not work and profitability contributes to decline... — read more 

Belk is not mid-range anymore, it’s now exclusively for the budget/clearance shopper. they also expect high end service when spending $7 on a tshirt. One customer demanded we steam her $8 Kim Rodgers blouse because it was wrinkled.

Anyone else hearing this? With centralized registers and low staffing levels. Everyone from store managers to sales associates will be getting the axe. Small doors are down to one register at some locations.

here's my own slogon ( charming elegant style belk ) but you can make up whatever you want silly or straightforward.

If you work at belk....tell me the products they sell are cheap, WITHOUT telling me the products they sell are cheap 🤣

“No I in team” is a philosophy invented by bad managers. When they don’t care that one person works and five don’t as long as job’s done. If that one dares to question what the heck is that, he gets “No I in team” or gets shamed as a “not a team... — read more

Do y'all think the proposed 2% raises will actually happen? I have serious doubts with this company. It seems like a tactic to keep people from quitting. I haven't seen any pay increase in 2 years so they've left me very pessimistic regarding Belk.

Previous post about Excel is correct, it does not work. Our store manager is working another job and gives herself bankers hours 8-4 so she can work her night job. Yet she expects my $10-$11 hour part timers to work til closing every night. Horrible... — read more
