Productive workplace with enjoyable staff and management
Sales Associate- Ladies Department (Current Employee), Venice, FL –
Pros: friendly staff, reasonable hours, sufficent breaks
Cons: low pay, unless hired as a chashier, very little register training
Typically, a day at work begins with go-backs. In between go-backs, visiual aspects are changed or reworked. Customer service is always incoproated through out the day. There is management for each department and each is present almost every day. I truly do enjoy working with the people and customers. There are rarely days I come home feeling flustered. – more...  It is an enjoyable place to work. – less

no room for advancement, low pay, duplicitous managers
Operations Manager (Former Employee), Orlando, FL –
I worked for this company for 12 years as an assistant manager. I did everything that was asked of me including opening stores, working at different locations working overnight shifts etc. I was never appreciated at this company and after filling in for managers who were ill I was eventually let go because I didn't jump through enough hoops for the – more...  manager I last worked for.
It will give me great pleasure when this company goes out of business!! – less

Bad management
Department Manager (Former Employee), Huntington Beach, CA –
Pros: the employees

I have very little good to say about this company. The company used to care about its employees, that has changed and now no one is happy working there.

The Stein Mart Way
Ladies Associate (Former Employee), Albany, GA –
A typical day at work for me would consist of me coming in and speaking to everyone. After clocking in, I would go and check each each fitting room. If they were clean I would go see if there was any merchandise to put out, if so I would put it out. If there was not, I would start scouting the floor and straighten and organize the racks as well as help – more...  customers when needed. I learned how to multi task with organizing merchandise and help customers at the same time. Management was helpful when needed. My co-workers were very helpful and fun. The hardest part of the job was keeping up with keeping the fitting rooms clean when we had big sales. The enjoyable part of the job was being able to make friends with my co-workers. – less

Not a good place to work at
Sales Associate (Former Employee), Hattiesburg, MS –
The pay is not good and hours are not guaranteed. The store manager and assistant manager always have bad attitudes among their employees except when important people come to view the store such as the district managers. Their is no employee motivation within the store. They're short of staff and are too cheap to hire anybody else and the store ends – more...  up being a mess sometimes because their is no additional help. I suggest not to apply at the Hattiesburg location. – less

Fun work place we had contests for credit card apps all the time made it more fun.
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee), Houston, TX –
Pros: credit app contest, sometimes the managers would buy us lunch, our repeat commited customers.
Cons: long hours, sometimes short or no breaks.
During the week the mornings were pretty slow so that gave u s time to get things organized and prepare for the work day. When things picked up it made the day go by fast . I learned how they do things in the work place and multitasking is very important when working the customer service desk. The management team was wonderful good job training and – more...  there when we needed them. Co-workers were fun to work with and everyone was friendly. The hardest part of the job was the Holiday season was very busy and long hours. I can recall 2 times when someone did not come to work and i worked open to close. The most enjoyable part of the job was our customers and their commitment to out store. They were almost always happy and repeat costumers. – less

poor workplace
receiving associate (Former Employee), store 261 san antonio,tx –
Pros: free lunches on occasion
Cons: poor management
I was a Stein Mart employee for almost eight years. I was unjustly laid off in August of 2009. I was a full time employee. Since then, I have lost my apartment, my truck, all my insurance benefits. It is very hard for older workers like myself to find work. The managers lie to the employees. The managers play favorites. I was laid off, yet there are – more...  managers who broke policy everyday. These managers are still there! Do not work there. – less

Nice place to work at.
Inventory (Former Employee), Savannah, GA –
I worked in the back, but I was able to see what was coming on the floor before hand. I was able to tell others how it looked or how it worked. I had a lot of fun working there.
