Macy's reviews

When I was working there, I didn't like the long hours. Also, in order to use your discount you have to sign up for a Macy's card. I got into some serious credit trouble with that but I have since repaired the damage. It's regular reatil so no benefits. I know on many occasions I had been reprimanded for causing customers to leave when it was them who caused the issue. Um, I still can't write 100 words on Macy's disadvantages. All in all it wasn't great but it could have been much much much worse. Oh, There's no sitting down.

Although associates are expected to sell items to customers, provide outstanding customer service, and keep the department in order, pay starts at or around minimum wage and, in my experience at least, there is very little recognition for hard work where it is due. An associate has to sell a certain amount and open a certain number of credit applications to get recognized as a hard worker, whereas those who work the floor and try to do stock work are ignored for their efforts. A lot of people get away with sitting down on the job and chatting all day without the managers realizing at all.
