Take a step back and put all the pieces from everyone's post together. If you still can't see...I wouldn't want to leave my ignorant bliss either.
- Customers aren't being listened to. Top Level stopped listening to them a long time ago. Can't be more apparent than in the amount of clearance items they have on the floor. Now they're leaving ND even when customers are asking for it back...that's not smart. However that is positioning itself for lower sales and for liquidation.
- Store employees have received a clear message that Corporate doesn't care about them. They only gave them a raise to avoid further team losses. In what world are long term loyal employees giving it 1000% after knowing the new associate next to them is making the same $ they are?
- Store associates are being mocked/ridiculed by management in different stores. Corporate is aware and doing nothing about it. Either that or HR (who i'm convinced is just a paid actor shuffling paper in the background trying to look useful) isn't stepping up...
Would you want to perform your best when you're working in a place that wears you down and mocks you day in/day out?
@corporate...are we still #onebelk or does that phrase only apply to those making 6 figures?
- Corporate has created this culture of everyone out for themselves. It starts at the top and trickles down and has been going on since Lisa Harper. Only now you're seeing the trickled portion of it. Nothing else for executives to do but pad their resume with their new promotions and make their next move before the ship truly sinks.
