      Pros

      i enjoyed the poeple I worked with

      Cons

      returns, the lack of flexibility in hours, the lack of caring for their employees, you can never do anything right there, no balance with work and home, arrogant, pretentious, hypocritical...all rah rah--you cannot be yourself there, you need always to be looking over your shoulder, cut throat, poor management skills, unrealistic expectations....the worst place I have ever worked

      Pros

      The best reason to work at Nordstrom is what you will learn and take with you anywhere you go. At Nordstrom you learn how to interact with customers at a level that is beyond retail service. You learn how to be a good leader and manage your own business within the company. You learn respect, confidence, and problem solving. It really is all together a great place to be where you are treated with respect and are given the opportunity to succeed.

      Cons

      Working the day after Thanksgiving and some of the Sale days makes it hard to travel around the holidays to be with family. ...And if you are a manager around those times...forget about it.. you arent going anywhere

      Pros

      The people were wonderful and Nordstrom does retain employees.

      Cons

      There is a certain structure in which to move up the ladder and if you don't follow that (work on the sales floor and go up), you will never be promoted to higher positions.
