Belk – “Get Rid Of Commission!”

Pros

The 20% discount and knowing when to expect sells.

Cons

The pay and the commission. Commission is horrible at any retail store especially this one!

Advice to Senior Management

Get rid of commission! People hide behind clothes stalking customers and stealing other employees customers. Customers are sometimes ignored because of low purchases... " Not enough items/ high priced items'. Managers don't discipline veterans, that make quota. Veterans that make quota slip on other duties, such as keeping the store clean and get away with it in the end. Also, 7.50 for part time employees isn't enough. We are expect to vacuum the floors, reorganize the shoe room, stock new items, reorganize the sells floor... which means moving the racks and sometimes removing all the clothes and lugging those heavy rack. Building and breaking down metal racks... none of those task equal 7.50 an hour!
