Pros

If you love to have some of the latest in trends at your fingertips, than this is the place for you. Depending on what store you work at the selection can be good. The discount is ok. It is less than most other places but you get your discount on top of the reduced price as well. You also get to meet alot of different people.

Cons

I would say the worst thing is the pay. They don't pay as much as other places do. Looking on here I have seen that similar jobs pay about five or six dollars more. Macys is going to squeez every cent out of you too. As a team lead you are pretty much an MTM without the pay. As for recognition for your work...at least at my store, it is almost does not exist. It is all about the sales associates. Even for the silly little contest give-a-ways are always pertaining to the sales associates and never to the support team. We were just there. Again this doesn't pertain to all stores. Aside from the store level stuff there seems to be a disconnect with upper corporate management. Just don't always trust your local store management.

Pros

Macys has a overall friendly enviornment and the CEO Terry Lundgren is interested in your input.

Cons

The VP level (Middle Managers)have no people skills. The more money you make the nicer and more down to earth you are. All HR proffessionals need a class on coaching and counseling.

Pros

You make friends with the people you work with, so it becomes fun to be at work. The pay is not bad.

Cons

The pay is not great, either. I sometimes dislike getting off work at 9 or 10 p.m.
