Thread regarding Belk layoffs

one belk = doing other people’s work with no pay

One Belk is a sham, perhaps one of the biggest shams in the retail industry.

  • -A $110,000 a year store manager picking and doing BOPUS all day and no grunt work....really?
  • a $15 an hour HR associate cleaning toilets?....really?
  • An $11 hr elderly female sales associate unloading heavy boxes and fixtures?....really?
  • A $190,000 a year regional manager oblivious to what is really going on? Or maybe they do know and don’t give a shyt.
  • A $9.75/hr housekeeping associate forced to do visual merchandising...really?

So sad to see what became the family owned and run business. I’m glad I left right after the sale. The new owners absolutely did not want family oriented executives....”they lost that loving feeling Now it’s gone, gone, gone.” Righteous Brothers. All Puns are intended. Warning Belk Employees Find another Retailer before all the decent positions are taken in the market you live and love.

"That $190,000 regional could be let go, that would free up a lot of cash. WTF do they do for that kind of money, tell you the best place to put an outpost of $9 earmuffs?"

Not the best place, rather they place where they want it.

There was always a lackey present during those visits with a legal pad taking the Holy Notes– a collection of opinions and edicts which must be adhered to, and any corrections made before the end of the day.

Memories.. Ugh! So glad to be done with it!

It's the Sears business plan. Look how that turned out.

One Belk = doing many other jobs except the one you were hired for.
