      Pros

      The employee discount (but then again the customers got the same percentage of discount practically), the people I worked with.

      Cons

      The upper management, the required amount of credit cards you have to open each week. The way some of the customers and management would treat employees.

      Macy's can be a roller coaster ride, depending on your manager..

      Pros

      Macy's gave decent pay for my position, this could be because it was an early morning shift and because I was a college graduate. They give 10 employee paid days off after 1 year, offer a great discount on top of sale prices and offer special sales to employee friends and family a few times a year. If you have the right manager and a good team, it can be very rewarding, fun experience.

      Cons

      Macy's has a tendency to hire poor managers resulting in a high level of manager turnover. I don't know if its simply poor managers or poor training. Of course retail hours aren't always great especially during the holidays. They have a tendency to rely on gossip as their form of communication rather than being straight forward with their employees. By the time they address an issue, it usually becomes too late, after several people have quit.

      Pros

      the discounts are great. It very clean and orderly and the direct management try to help you through things as best as they can.

      Cons

      well i work in OR, and my work schedule comes from CA so they really are not in touch with our day to day traffic and so we are always short handed on busy days and overloaed on slow days
