Pros

Nordstrom is a commission based company, and you work hard for your money. The more you sell the more you make. If you enjoy competitiveness then this is the place for you.

Cons

Due to the economy, not as many people are shopping and spending a ton of money anymore. As Nordstrom is commission based, it can be difficult to make as much money as in the past during these times.

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.
