      I worked at Macy's part-time (Less than a year)

      Pros

      Co-workers were great, they made the job bearable.

      Cons

      horrible pay. Would not follow through on incentives. SO many call outs = long hours (always asked to stay over) . Rude/entitled customers. Understaffed. I could go on and on

      Advice to Management

      Pay raise. Hire more people, the bottom line is if you don't have enough people working, employees will keep on quitting. No one wants to work long hours with rude customers and no help.

      I have been working at Macy's part-time

      Pros

      The people are fun to work with. For the most part, the other more experienced employees are willing to show you the ropes.

      Cons

      The flexible scheduling seems like it would be a good thing at first, but if you aren't on the website right as the calendar is released, all of the shifts will be grabbed before you can get to them. I am a current employee with 0 shifts scheduled in the next 4 weeks. It is by no means a stable job. If you need this to pay rent, it is not the position for you!!!! Also the training is terrible. I was thrown to the wolves on my first shift. Had to close my department by myself! Had no idea if I was even doing it right.

      Advice to Management

      Be more upfront with your employees about the scheduling issues, or fix the flexible scheduling all together. It is ridiculous that I can't find a shift to work in the next month!!! Additionally, it would be beneficial if your first full shift was actually with an experienced employee.

      Pros

      Got to meet some great people.

      Was only making money half the time. The companies store goals were too high so commission departments had to back-stab each other to make their own sales goals.

      Advice to Management

      Train everyone so that the team is on the same page.
