Thread regarding Belk layoffs

$15 an hour, what's the catch?

  1. Most, if not all $15 an hour new hires will get minimal hours. Under 20 hours per week.
  2. Just about all of them are temporary holiday help, they will be gone on Dec 26th!
  3. Store Managers will have to pick up the slack for the payroll budget, our budget was running thin on $10 an hour workers, never mind $15.
  4. Belk will offset the cost, by cutting costs in some other areas.
  5. Long term, regular employees will want a pay increase also, and they deserve it!!
  6. Executive Leadership will try to put a positive spin on this
  7. More and More Long term employees will start to quit.
  8. Workload will double, triple, or worse.

So what about the employees that made 15 or over? Pretty frustrated that co workers got a 4 dollar raise and no bump up for us?

Correct on 8 and 15. Hopefully as a manager, the message can be conveyed through proper channels. Obviously a long term employee should make at least same or more as new hires.
