Marshalls reviews

Where can I start..Marshalls is a off price retailer, so the clothes are cheaper in price, and 1 to 2 seasons off from desgners..maybe more. The stores are big, so there is alot of inventory, leading to alot that can be messed up by customers, hence, alot for you as an employee to clean up! People dont care, is what I noticed, I dont know if its because its a lower end store or what, but people try on shoes, leave then in the middle of the isle, with the box and stuffings all out. One shoe is at the front of the store, and another at the end. Pocketbooks are a mess...putting them in color order is great, until people take a white bag, and just drop it in with the blues. People have left clothes in the oddest places, when they realize at the last minute they dont want them any more. Its a pain when you hear customers say "oh she will clean up after me because she works here." Its hard, to clean then straighten up, and someone come behind you and mess up again, I know this is the life in retail, but wow, never saw it this bad!

Promotion is not merit based. It is who you know not what you know that get you a promotion. I know some people who stay on the same position and never move up despite being better employees than others. Management often have high expectations but provide inadequate resources to accomplish those expectations. It's hard to motivate associates when they do not get rewards for going extra miles.
