Pros

Pro used to be culture. Not any more. Pro - discount

Cons

No employee development. Throw away culture (meaning, they use you and toss you aside). Current leadership are in it for themselves, not for the good of Nordstrom. No integrity with current IT leadership. (ie flat out lie to employees). Not the same company as when I started. Very sad for the Nordstrom Family as I don't think they know how bad some parts of IT are.

Pros

Decent base pay, somewhat autonomous, great tip potential.

Cons

The company has changed for the worse since COVID. When I came back the mood of the entire store had shifted. Gone were the days of comradery, customer focus, and taking pride in a job well done. In its place there is a new culture of cutthroat sales, a severe decline in customer focus, and worst of all a new focus on profit over customer satisfaction. When I was told that the amount the store charged for a shoe shine was not enough to do the best job I could for a customer I knew things had gone downhill for the company. Not to mention I watch a manager prey on a mentally disabled person in order to secure a sale, when the person could not understand what was being offered. Sad that such a once great company is now just another greed ridden corporation.
