I have been working at Macy's part-time

Pros – Flex-team hours allow more freedom
The 20% discount!
Meet interesting people

Cons – Management is often less educated than you are but speak down to you
They will make you work holidays, non optional, reason why I quit

Advice to Senior Management – The competition between full time, part time, and flex employees needs to be corrected. It gets cut throat real fast when the full times need to make their goals

I worked at Macy's part-time for more than a year

Pros – Friendly co-workers. A store discount.

Cons – No loyalty to seasonal staff. (Even the seasonal staff that has worked multiple Christmas seasons.) No communication between too many managers. Executive office staff has no idea what the sales floor managers are doing. The interview process is very unprofessional.

Advice to Senior Management – Be professional. Appreciate the hard work everyone does, even seasonal help. If you have a manager tell an employee "welcome... you are now permanent" - mean it. If you interview a candidate for a position, don't tell them "I have 10 more interviews" over the next week and then send that same candidate a standard e-mail in less than two days saying thanks but no thanks. Don't be so cold.
