Pros
Working at a big, familiar American company is kind of cool. Scheduling, paychecks, etc. done online for your convenience (although Insite, the website, is often slow and unruly). There is an employee discount, but you can only use it through your Macy's card account that you are obligated to open.
Cons
"Sales Goals" sometimes unrealistic, and you don't even get paid on commission. You are forced to constantly ask people to open a Macy's account, which most people don't want or need. If you have no customers, you are expected to walk around for hours and make sure everything is in perfect order. Sometimes other employees get pretty cutthroat and steal customers from you just to meet their sales goals/Macy's account requirements.
