can you sue belk for creating a toxic, unsafe (not practicing social distancing) and in some stores dangerous work environment ? If so, we should form a class action lawsuit

Macy’s, Khols, Dillard’s, Stein Mart all have a larger staff than Belk, we are still operating on 13 associates and two managers a day.

I miss Shilly, I hope it’s ok.

if belk cuts holiday pay for thanksgiving and keeps the store open, all associates and managers MUST protest, call out sick, stage a walk out, do something!!!!!! Don’t let these greedy b–tards take time away from your family!!

So, a very good source said even though all this mess, cutting pay, store hours, etc.. Lisa Harper will get a bonus of over $500,000... wtf?

our store managers spend $119 on lunch today on Belk’s store credit card, how is this allowed?

Before Toys R Us went bust, it was operated the same as belk. Managers had pay cuts, stock was low, and they were telling everyone that nothing was wrong. I worked there for 5 yrs.

Just checking in on you mother harper, we haven't heard a peep from you, have you lost the ability to communicate?

Lin-Foo-Yin said that 5000 years ago.

“People lie when they have a personal stake in not telling you the truth”

There are those that drink the Belk Kool-Aid and those that don't. It is wise to know what's in the Kool-Aid before you drink it.

It's Third Quarter. Almost everyone one of the companies on Moody's list for high risk of bankruptcy by the end of the year have now filed for bankruptcy. Except Belk. How is it still hanging on? It will have to file soon, perhaps this month. ... —  read more 

For those if us still on furlough our unemployment ends soon. Is the company going to extend unemployment ?

Our store is changing hours to 10-7 this week. Employee hour cuts are still in effect. We have long lines, angry customers, stressed associates, and no AC. Belk is practically giving away the store with all the discounts. The store is a wreck... —  read more 

We are attracting the worst customer base in retail, low budget customers who think they are owed everything, very demanding but they have no money to spend. the worst of the worst.

we Just lost two STM’s, one last week and one this week, no two week notice. This is bad!!

Our Store has no a/c. Help! It was 80 degrees

I'm curious as to when fitting rooms will be opened. If they are opened will staffing increase to handle the extra sanitizing, etc.,.?

As a retired store manager/regional pre and post partner consolidation days I can say that it apparently appears not much has changed. Still the same neglected stores, unappreciated associates and management running like rats to hide the truths... —  read more

I get that no one is getting a raise this year, but what is the reason behind not administering any reviews?

JCP owns 1.5 billion dollars of real estate, which is several hundred stores. Most of these will be liquidated. Belk and Sycamore will get instant revenue from selling these stores, I believe this is the "lifeboat for Belk" Sycamore was referring... —  read more 

she does not want any contact with store level people.

I believe this purchase of JCP is a smokescreen for for something nefarious.

So ft nonmanagerial employees only get 28 or 27 hours for next week🤯🤯. Can we file unemployment for the decrease or not? This is insane

And look where they are today.

Most JCP stores are located in malls. malls are a thing of the past, plain and simple, slapping the Belk name on a dying relic is not gonna help.

there is, as you all may know, a hiring freeze. Well, employees also cannot be terminated because there is nobody to take their spot. they cannot call back remaining furloughs either.

Does this sound like a business that’s gonna be here in 2021?

If you’re located in a mall store are your malls busy or do you have a lot of businesses closing?

Anyone that worked for Belk before Sycamore knows something is terribly wrong. The only thing that has not changed is the name, I’m sure that will happen eventually if the company doesn’t fold first.

dillards has an almost full staff, about 70 people in our store, and we have four LP associates plus two LP managers, full time get 39 hours, part time varies. Our stores are open 11-7, sounds like Belk is running on a skeleton crew to lower cost.

Many part time employees have not been called back to work but their employee discount still is in effect so are these part timers still employed with Belk even though no one has called them or sent them a final letter ?

Is it all stores?
