      Pros

      good customers, products carried high quality, sufficient in store training. new product arrives daily along with good replenishment. discount could be better but being able to use at Rack is good.

      Cons

      co workers awful especially in certain departments. constant fighting over customers. Managers not always faif with their scheduleing. 20% discount not good enough.

      Pros

      The internship allows greater/faster opportunity for growth within the company. Working during one of the busiest times of the year, during the Anniversary Sale. Commission! Love the company culture. Everyone is very friendly, and Store Manager and HR always have an open door if you want to talk about your goals. 20% discount on merchandise! Throughout the internship, get to meet a variety of interesting people in different positions throughout the company. For example, met the VP of Marketing! Great to hear each person's Nordstrom story, and they were all open to questions.

      Cons

      Can sometimes "rub elbows" with other employees, since it is commissioned based. Sometimes worked overtime. Wish I had more responsibilities with my internship, or was mentored more by my department manager.

      An exciting and never boring retail environment

      Pros

      The customers are always nice. Co-workers are very helpful and sometimes you learn to bond with them. The commission can always be good when you know how to sell

      Cons

      The salary can be low. If a customer returns something, it is docked from your paycheck. The interview process was a bit difficult at first.
