Pros
I was given the chance to work on some interesting projects.
Cons
Twice during my six years at Nordstrom I was assigned to a team managed by a horrible human being. Both of these managers abused their direct reports. The procedure at the company was always to find someone to blame rather than trying to fix anything. The "urgent" was always prioritized over the "important." Any time there was an issue, the company forced the responsible manager to leave the company and buried the problem, rather than try to fix the issue. Everyone was terrified all the time because they knew if there was no one to blame they would be singled out and terminated for some fabricated reason. During the pandemic, any one with experience was let go and Nordstrom used entry level employees to fill the gaps. They did this while expecting the same level of productivity from existing employees. Personally, I became seriously ill during the pandemic. During my illness the company demoted me and eventually forced me to resign. I raised these issues with HR. HR promised there would be no retaliation but of course there was. I almost died trying to maintain my position at Nordstrom and after six years of service I was tossed aside like garbage.
