Macy's reviews

No respect from management or customers. All push for getting charges and sales but no consideration for the fact there are too few associates working, too much area to cover by ones self, really bad pay raises (worked for Kaufmann's/Macy's for almost 9 years and do not even make $9 per hour), they've cut vacation time, they've pitted one associate against another for sales and accounts. Used to be fun but not any longer.

1. Lack of vision and innovation 2. They chose to hire a Senior Designer who had mostly men's design experience with minimal Women's experience to be above me. Additionally, the Designer lacked corporate experience, so I had to mentor my Senior Designer. There were no skill sets that this "Senior Designer" could teach me that I didn't already know. 3. NEVER in my life have I experienced teaching upwards; it has always been my director or manager teaching me skillsets. 4. The lack of accountability of those in senior/director-level positions has been astounding. 5. Of the 6+ private brands I had worked with, only 2 (of 8 people) cross-functional team members understood that I was the only designer in the span of 3-4 months at the company and helped me acclimate.
