Dillard's reviews

What they don't tell you is that they will cut your pay by ten percent every three months starting with your six month view if you don't make your sales goals. These goals are not based on current market conditions or even on how well they believe the company will do but on what the sales were the previous year. There's no adjustment for recessions like the one we're having right now, and they'll randomly increase it without telling you. Even if you do get a raise on your next review, it won't take you back up to your starting pay because that would just make too much sense. They also expect you to shove credit cards down the customers' throats, and if you don't they'll write you up and eventually fire you. Or they'll fire you for missing your sales goals, not taking any bag you bring into the store up to customer service to have securtiy tape placed on it, or just because they have issues balancing the budget and you and everyone else is expendable.

you have to sell a certain amount per hour to get a raise and if you dont you may qualify for a pay cut. if you do make your goal and get a raise, your goal goes up and you have to sell more just because you are getting paid more, which makes no sense. because of this it gets really competitive in certain departments. the employees end up not liking each other because everyone fights for sales. this sometimes creates less attention to keeping the area clean and well merchandised because no one wants to be putting stock away when they could be helping customers and getting sales.
