Pros

my first manager was fine. some co-workers okay. loyal customers that you build relationships with very pleasant.

Cons

ALL upper management does not care about you and they WILL throw you under the bus everytime they need to make themselves look like SAINTS in front of THEIR BOSSES. especially the district managers and regionals. There is not anything set in stone at this company, you will be tossed around and confused for atleast the first 3 yrs of employment. Hours are horrible, there is no drug testing so you have to deal with people who are using I experienced this many many many times through out my employment. no room for advancement because the company is downsizing the staff, but expanding the number of stores. the customers always complain about the out-dated policies and obsolete ways of running a business.serious upgrades needed to satisfy customers and raise productivity levels for the staff without making them slave. if you work for bealls outlet as an associate, super, or manager you will have every job title under the sun at the store, maintance, register, cleaning, markdowns, your own department, unloading trucks, etc etc etc the stores employees are put through too much no one is designated to a couple of specific task everyone does everything but you only get paid for the job you applied for not all the other jobs you end up doing.

Pros

he pros of working at Bealls are the opportunity to grow in customer service, leadership, merchandising, and store operations. It is a good place to build communication skills, teamwork, problem-solving, and retail management experience while working in a fast-paced environment.

Cons

Some of the cons are that company policies and procedures change frequently, which can make it challenging for employees to keep up with expectations. The company also appears to be shifting toward a model similar to TJ Maxx, Ross, and Marshalls, but without always providing the same level of training, staffing, or pay structure. Another concern is the lack of consistent pay raises, even when employees take on additional responsibilities
