Cons
The only reason I'm giving this a 3 start Instead of two is because I liked working at the rack four years ago before the mobile checkout came in. Now it has just turned into a chaotic madhouse that's nuttier than a sack of squirrel poo. Nordstrom does some things right but in terms of planning things out they often don't think things through which causes problems for everyone else. It is a mentality and physically challenging place to work especially with the ridiculously insane pressure to sell credit cards and the constant chattering in your ear set while you are trying to do 3 things at once since departments are never staffed well. The customers are generally nice but ever since mobile checkout I saw an increase of rude impatient attitudes ironically. The floor is always a wreck even 5 minutes after picking up clothes because people seem to be less than apathetic about their messes. There is low moral and high turn over because its quite obvious that the only thing managers care about is making money and getting promoted.
