Macy's reviews

- Not properly trained about fashion or how to sell clothing in general. They have one day of training that basically just teaches you how to work a register and some other basic tasks. - Managers are untrusting of employees and not much recognition even though you go above and beyond for each customer, and even though customers praise you. Basically, even if you’re an amazing employee and work hard, you still get paid terribly and don’t get recognized in any meaningful way. - I got paid pretty much minimum wage, $9.25 in CA 3 years ago. They’ll pay you the lowest they can and rarely give you an increase even if you’re a star employee. - Can be difficult to get hours during some seasons - Managers constantly hound you to open credit cards, I’ve also witnessed unethical practices where employees enter false information or tell customers to enter false information on their credit application so that they get approved easily. It’s disgusting. - There is no sense of camaraderie amongst employees. Most of your co-workers will be very selfish since everyone is given a sales goal every day. They will be sneaky and try to steal your customers and sales, especially when you first start working there. If you do end up working their don’t care so much about your sales goal and just be chill, at the end of the day it’s just minimum wage. - They hire literally anyone with a beating heart. I didn’t even have an in-person interview and was hired on the spot during a phone interview. It’s laughable the type of employees that they hire. - The customers that Macy’s attracts aren’t the best to work with, always looking for discounts and the constant coupons are so annoying to deal with. - Confusing sales and coupon disclaimers constantly confuse customers who don’t read fine print. Constantly will be explaining to customers why their coupons aren’t working and why their item is excluded from the sale.
