Von Maur reviews

-Have to work most weekends -Promotions are based mostly on politics and not on experience or skill -Management overtly plays favorites, and will let some people get away with anything, and will treat others very harshly -Overly strict about minor infractions -No job security; many people have been fired -Upper management does not support long-term employees or department managers; they will listen and believe most complaints made by new employees or customers, even if they lie -Low commission for every department except shoes and cosmetics -Most rules in the company are learned by word of mouth, since the company does not provide a handbook that is available to most employees; so people are often breaking rules that they did not know existed, and being put in counseling or even fired. -They provide little to no training for department managers

-Poor job at implementing new programs. -Very poor upper store management. (I wouldn't have hired the last store manager I worked under to clean the washrooms.). -Will not support an associate in a dispute with a customer...even if it is someone with more than a proven track record. -Long time department managers should have imput in hiring for their department.
