Bloomingdales review
Sales (Former Employee), Century City , ca –
When i worked at Bloomingdales my day would start out with organizing the floor and put away new product that we would receive that day. I learned how to manage myself and how to work with others in different areas of the store. Management was always around if you ever had a question or needed help with a issue. I really enjoyed selling and making the – more...  company money. – less

No Loyalty!
Visual Merchandiser (Former Employee), King of Prussia –
Pros: co-workers were wonderful!
Cons: senior management!!!!!!!
From 2009 until 2011 I was employed by Bloomingdale's at the King of Prussia Mall as a part-time visual merchandiser. I worked hard and for almost a year I was given full time hours due to the high volume of work we had. I received very high performance ratings and took on supervisory reponsibilties. I requested to be considered for a promotion full – more...  time position at another Bloomingdal's store and when I went for the interview the store manager was extremely unprofessional and rude. I was very discouraged by the mistreatment. I told my supervisor and senior management but was gvien no support. I could not believe the way I was treated after all the hard work and effort I put into my job, I resigned! – less

Not a very work friendly enviornment
Frieght opperator/visual assistant (Current Employee), Las Vegas, NV –
Pros: non come to mind
Cons: schedule hours range from 5-15 hours a week only
In my proffesional oppinion, Bloomingdale is NOT a very good job path to pursue. The atmosphere is very sterile and the benefits are almost non-existent. This is a poor job placement for anyone who doesn't have a management position

If you enjoy building relationships with customers and remaining a sales professional then this is the job for you.
Sales Professional/Coach Specialist (Current Employee), Willow Grove, PA –
Pros: nice employees, competitive pay, strong client relationships
Cons: no opportunity for advancement, lack of management support, constant risk of termination.
When I first got hired at Bloomingdales I was very excited. Everyone seemed so nice and they seemed to care about your success within the company. They placed me in the fashion accessories department where I worked with the jewelry and watches. I really enjoyed my first few months there and I grew to love my co-workers. When I graduated college my manager – more...  came to me and asked me if I was interested in the Sales Manager in Training (SMT) position. I was very interested and I applied. I was interviewed twice and I felt very confident about the interviews. Unfortunately I did not receive the position, which was alright but I feel that the management could have handled the situation better. They really made me feel like I got the position when I really didn't. They offered me a position as the Coach Specialist in handbags and I accepted it.
After I applied for the SMT position and was rejected I started to feel very insecure about this job. I knew that I could be fired for anything and I was very cautious about everything I did. They began putting pressure on me to perform high sales numbers for our sales events. I felt that the goals that I was personally given were unattainable because my clients were not clients that purchased handbags, they often purchased jewelry and watches. Of course I did not make my sales goals for the events and I felt like I didn't accomplish anything.
This job is perfect for people who like to be challenged with unattainable sales goals, calling clients for every sale event, very strict rules, and no real employee recognition. – less

No job security, poor management
Estee Lauder Beauty Advisor (Former Employee), Bridgewater NJ –
Pros: nice coworkers
Cons: lack of training, management, unrealistic goals
I liked the girls I worked with in this store. There was a lack of coaching and a runaround of managers who did not even call you by name, and constantly told you what you were doing wrong and nothing to help you.
