The culture is horrible. They dont care about their receiving team. They say that there is room for advancement but that's a lie. I worked for them for four years and although I was qualified for a supervisor position I was passed not given the position because of management.

Burlington says they are a caring company. Right now all the CEO cares about is his shareholders. The company culture is wonderful in written word, but reflected differently on the day to day basis. No payroll for needed cashiers. I was told that I was in a "Cinderella" position at Disneyland making people happy to stand in line for 20 minutes to check out. The leader telling us this was the Regional Manager. This is how far removed from the day to day reality of running a business corporate is. Double workloads, no payroll for keeping the store in order, low wages, constantly shifting schedules, it is extremely hard to keep any morale. There is room for growth and it is a great place to gain experience in leadership under extremely difficult conditions. i don't know any store manager at this time who is not discouraged and the associates are leaving in numbers.
