Pros

Good pay, Benefits are great for retail. Good way to meet a variety of people (customers).

Cons

Their "promote from within" policy can be a benefit, but in many circumstances, hinders Nordstrom's full potential. In other words, they will promote an individual even if he/she is not the best fit for that certain position. Retail hours vary, no steady amount of hours guaranteed
