Feel like working at herbergers....DONT!
sales associate (Former Employee), scottsbluff, ne – May 7, 2013
Your typical day at Herbergers is being mistreated by your managers. They act like they know what they are doing when they really dont. Co-Workers are all lazy and your hard work that you get done will be downgraded. This company may be "good" but working in Scottsbluff sucks. Feel like working in a different area when your scheduled in another one, – more... yep that is what you will get. You get paid something that you thought was alot and come to find out others get paid more than you that just started....yep that happens to! – less

Cons: wages, no opportunity for advancement
This was a terrible place to work. Poor management, no training, inconsistent expectations, poor pay, very unqualified managers, messy, employees who want get away with anything, unequal pay...I saw so many things that were unprofessional and unethical. I will never work for them again. However I met some wonderful people there who were hard workers – more... and it made my experience worth it. – less

Good experience in learning customer service
Customer Service Manager (Former Employee), bloomington,mn – March 1, 2013
Pros: benefits
Cons: no advancement, poor store mgmt, poor hiring
It's an easy job if you want to be paid. Don't expect to be recognized for your work, no promotions once you become a manager. Did all of the work, while others slacked off. No appreciation whatsoever. No experience necessary!

Horrible place to work
Receiving (Former Employee), Great Falls, MT – February 27, 2013
Pros: paid breaks
Cons: horrible management
The work environment here is horrible management sucks they don't have clue one about how to run this store. Constant harassment from supervisor one in particular. The manager is just a money grubbing person who only cares about making money and that's it, he doesn't care if he has minors working till 1130 or 12 at night he's just all about the money. – more... I would say if your looking for a friendly place or work somewhere do not apply here you will just get treated terrible and again management is horrible they should all be fired for making it a terrible store. – less

Applicant beware
Receiving/Dock Supervisor (Former Employee), Virginia, MN – February 27, 2013
Pros: co-workers, employee discount
Cons: low pay, poor training, poor management
The store manager at the Virginia, MN store is a bully, plain and simple. She makes what could be an enjoyable place to work a very stressful, demoralizing, humiliating, and robotic environment. No one is spared from her daily doses of unnecessarily reprimanding employees in front of co-workers and customers. She offers very little support and inept – more... training. She is inflexible, ungrateful for a job well done, and unapproachable. Many employees and customers have registered complaints with Bon-Ton. I heard she was ordered to attend anger management classes. If it's true, it didn't help. Even with more cries from employees to corporate, she is still there doing what she does best--bullying everyone from teenagers to grandmothers. This is a small town and many people I know who have lived here for a long time won't even shop there anymore because of her negative attitude. The store itself is old, stained, cracked, dull, and full of broken fixtures. There have been many very friendly, knowledgeable, hard-working people that get fed up with it all and leave. It's a shame. – less

Productive fun place to work
Retail Sales/Stock (Former Employee), Stillwater, MN – February 5, 2013
A typical day at work which is helping guests find items, and stocking shelves, and making sure that the shelves were neat and straighten for the next morning. The best part of working for Herberger's is meeting new people.

Busy but fun
Sales Associate (Current Employee), Ottumwa Iowa – January 12, 2013
Pros: paid breaks, get paid for selling credits, coworkers, decent hours, employee discount
Cons: benefits, lower pay, late nights sometimes til 1 am.
I really enjoy working here. The pay isn't great but its my favorite job that I've had. I really enjoy the people I work with and the customers are great for the most part. My hours are pretty consistant between 20-30 a week. Hopefully they stay that way after the winter season. Management is good overall. They treat everyone with respect.

Overall good place to work
Cash Office Manager (Former Employee), Missoula, MT – January 6, 2013
Pros: everyone has a positive customer first attitude, lots of smiles and easy to work with people
Cons: some company policies are random, coporate doesn't care about the little people
On my typical day at work I counted the safe, balanced the tills, opened the office till, corrected any problems, called in change requests, printed signs, checked company email, ordered supplies, answered the phone, made sure invoices were paid in a timely manner, and other duties as assigned. The hardest part of the job was learning to gift wrap, – more... which I now enjoy, but they discontinued it. The most enjoyable part of the job was working with my co-workers they were awesome. – less

Stock job/unloaded truck (Former Employee), Virginia,MN – December 14, 2012
Pros: always work to be done. decent starting wages
Cons: very poor management
Most upper Management were very unprofessional, rude, and clueless. They were pushy in areas where they had no business being. Constantly critiquing my work and stock room manager's work. The application was very unclear and I got fired 4 weeks after I was hired, because of a petty misdemeanor I did not know I had to disclose. Instead of doing the background – more... check before hiring me they tell me 4 weeks later they are letting me go. I feel they were looking for any reason to get rid of me, but couldn't afford not to hire me because they had literally no one else to unload truck at the time. Not impressed at all. Look somewhere else for work, before trying this mess. – less

Great first job overall.
Men's Sales Associate (Former Employee), Ottumwa, IA – July 24, 2012
Pros: co-workers, good customers in the men's department
Cons: no advancement, tiny raise, not enough hours
I worked with this company for a year and a half. It was my first real job. I started while in high school and only worked ten or so hours a week. After graduating I was asked to take a part-time position. This gave me 20-35 hours a week. I was given one raise on my year anniversary. A typical day at work involved assisting customers and "recovering". – more... For the most part, management was excellent, especially the store manager. The same goes for my co-workers. 98% of them were fun and sweet and the other 2% just kept to themselves. The hardest part of the job was working hard for minimum wage and never being offered a real raise or promotion. The most enjoyable part of the job was sending angry customers away happy. – less
