You need to be realistic

I think some people on this page prefer Belk bashing. over a realistic pov. I'll be the first to say that working at Belk is no picnic, and when I get a better job offer, I'm out. However, I am also very aware of how long it took for me to get an interview with anyone before Belk, and my age. I keep all of these things in the back of my head when I'm considering jumping ship because hope doesn't pay the bills, and the grass is not always greener in another job. I like the people I work with. The job can be a pain in the butt. The policies of this company leave a lot to be desired. But I like lights, heat, water, food. That's my reality.
I'm not some corporate shill. I don't need or want to sing the praises of any company.
If you find something better out there then run, don't walk, to the nearest Belk exit and never look back.

Truth in both posts. Many would rather unfairly bash Belk, rather than move on. Unfortunately, they may be looking but it’s very difficult to fake team spirit and positive attitude in an interview. In the meantime, while not all is perfect, I’m giving thanks for my store team’s overall good spirit and good health.

Well put!

The bashing is just letting off steam, like a "safety valve" (fans of The Andy Griffith Show may get a chuckle at that). Sycamore deserves the criticism.

You folks who feel trapped just remember: It's Just a Store! If you need to move on, you can and you will get by! There's better jobs out there and ways to get them.

And, speaking from experience and leaving Belk once and for all, the grass ain't greener, but the air sure is nicer!
