Pros

This is an absolute horrible company to work for. Google this company. It’s one of the top ten worst companies to work for in the United States (unless you are in the corporate offices in Arkansas.). No big surprise there!

Cons

Where to begin? Let’s start with no benefits for 1+ years. They do provide a health care option but it is ridiculously expensive and has horrible coverage. No paid time off for 1 and 1/2 years. No paid sick time for 1 and 1/2 years. I have heard management say “refuse all requested days off on the monthly schedule. “. No training for new employees. They come and go like it’s a drive thru. Now let’s go to dress code. You must wear dress shoes and stand for 8 hours. Dress shoes are not stand on your feet all day shoes. The company is sooo far behind in tends and what people actually wear in today’s world. This sexist dress code requires men to have very specific work attire while women get away with wearing just about anything. Plan on working every weekend. Just a heads up Sundays you work 6 hours and get NO break. I thought the law required a break after every four hours. Maybe I am wrong ? The hours you work allow for no balance in your life. If you work for Dillards you might as well forget having any social or family life what so ever. Overall it’s just a horribly greedy, uncaring, unfulfilling company. If you look past this review and except the job, you will quickly realize you have sold your soul to the devil.

Pros

I gained good customer service and problem solving experience while working here. You learn how to multitask under pressure. I also gained experience gift wrapping(I found out I enjoy this part of the job a lot), shipping orders, and overall in store functions. I met many supportive and enjoyable coworkers while working here as well as memorable customers.

Cons

The main Cons of working here were: -Chronic understaffing -Too many responsibilities expected from one associate -Feeling unsupported by main management - Hard work and extra effort often goes unrecognized - High stress due to unrealistic workload expectations - Limited opportunities for actual feedback to management to actually improve
