Decent starting job

Pros

- flexible hours for school - employee discount and knowing when sales start in advance (to put items you want to purchase on hold)

Cons

- pay was not competitive and low - constantly nagged to open new Macy's credit card accounts - overworked on weekends/holidays - management didn't 'manage' -- other department problems sometimes spilled over to your department (eg: covering for someone, doing go-backs for them or cleaning up their department because of poor scheduling)

once you have achieved all the requirements for news hires, after 1 year you achieve tenure and unless you do something really stupid, such as steal, its impossible to get fired.

Cons

poor management poor pay lack of respect towards employees no communication no work/life balance * this is the list that doesnt end....yes it goes on and on my friend.....
