I just want to say that JC Penney is one of the crappiest employers I have come across in a long time. Thinking about working for them? Give it a lot more thought before you apply. I don't really know if all the stores are the same or if it is just this one but it is run by a bunch of idiots. My daughter works for them and is dying to quit. I am getting so fed up, I'm about ready to go up there and kick someone's ass but it isn't my place to do so. Having a hard time with that.
When they offered her the job, they promised a 25 cent raise after 30 days. They promised the same thing to another girl hired around the same time. These promises were made by some manager named Veronica. Yes... I'm naming names here today.
Well... 30 days has come and gone. No raise. Daughter went and asked her about it. She said she never said anything about a raise. Daughter checked with the other new girl again. Yes she DID say something about the raise! They went to the store manager. He said, "No... it is after 90 days. I will talk to her about it."
I'm sorry, that is NOT good enough! Technically, isn't that a contract? They offered the job with a 25 cent raise at thirty days. The girls accepted. It was a done deal. Now they are refusing to give the raises. I don't see how they can do that!
And that is just one of many crappy things going on with them. There is just soooooo much more. The supervisor has put herself on my list of people to beat the crap out of. She better hope Daughter never introduces me to her. We're gonna have a little chat if she does! And I just happen to need to go up there this weekend to use a gift card I received. Wouldn't it be interesting if Miss Bitch was there? Yeah, it would cost daughter her job but she really doesn't care at this point.
So... personally, I would LOVE to hire a lawyer and threaten the crap out of the store but that costs money that I don't have and I don't know if it would accomplish anything or not but I'm pissed and sick and tired of idiots that don't know how to treat employees with respect. I've worked in retail for far too many years (thank God those days are over) and I have dealt with enough garbage from employers. Just because it is retail and these are young adults does NOT mean you can treat them like dirt! A-holes!
