Macy's Employer Reviews

As a fragrance rep. I completly enjoyed the customer interaction and personalized gifting! It is so very rewarding to know that the purchases are going to make someone extremely happy.

Macy's typically promotes from with in, so once you get in, you are good. I was promoted three times in my first 14 months with the company.

Enjoyed training the new employees. Co-workers were pleasant and helpful.

This was my second experience in retail since the 80's but I learned much more. The day of Price Changing was planned out ahead so most of the work was usually accomplished. The management for all of the morning teams were excellent & 80% of my team were knowledgable enough to understand what was the day's goal. There was nothing that was difficult – more...  for me because all the procedures were well taught. What I enjoyed the most was being able to go home knowing that I had accomplished most of what was required of me! – less

good customer service and the staff is very friendly.

good place to shop.

managers are very helpful.

Assist customers at cash register, keep your area clean, keep the fitting room clean and organized, and assist with wardrobe.

Store in bad location for upscale business. Not a good place to work. Other stores much better!!!

• Meeting and making a connection with customers, asking questions and listening to shoppers' needs, then giving options and advice on meeting those needs
• Ensuring that fitting rooms are ready for customers by promptly clearing our merchandise and returning it to the proper area of the selling floor
• Maintaining selling floor presentations, and restocking – more...  them as needed – less

Energy Was Great and People Are Friendly . Nice If You Like Sales And Retail.

Productive and fun workplace. My coworkers were very friendly. The hardest part of the job not being able to balance my time. My supervisor is very supportive.

I use to work as a seasonal position. I put clothes away, organize clothes and the counter. Cleaned off the counter and did customer service by accepting return items and saling items. Most co-workers were very helpful but some were very competitive.

In the mourings when the store opens it starts off very slow; this depends in what department of the store. Go back and forth to the regester and clothes racks. The day will usually speed up around the afternoon; this means standing at a regester for three or more hours straight this is common on the weekens. This was my first job and I learned a lot – more...  about customer service. I learned hand how an outfit may appear on a mannequin can have and affect on people. With the outfit you can change just the color of the shirt and more people may have an appeal to it. However, management wasn't that great; there were some managers that are willing to help you weather it was with a customer or with a product. The co-workers that I had worked with were great anything that I needed help with or had questions they took there time explaining and showing tasks that was at hand. One of the worst part of the job is being on your feet all day, not being able to take breaks when you need to, and rude customers. The most enjoyable part of the job is that your co-workers try and have fun just to make the atmostphere calm, you get to meet different types of people, and over is a great learing experience. – less

This job is very team-oriented and interactive between depts. Enjoy meeting with various customers and assisting with them
for questions concerning purchases.

The management worked very well with my scedual. I had great time working with my co-workers and interacting with the guests. I was able to learn where all the items belong within a short period of time.

lots of opportunity for growth with in the company. great managent staff.

The hours are good, the managers work with you, fast days and slow days

Like many places in Bakersfield, California, the Macy's workplace suffers from an overload of juvenile drama. Every associate is judged purely on numbers: credit card apps and sales goals. If you don't fulfill your goals, you aren't worth anything to the Macy's empire. The managers expect you to have no life-unless you're one of their biggest fans/friends. – more...  If you aren't in the Manager's Circle, and if you DO have a life, expect to end up on the chopping block-QUICKLY.

Yet another workplace that suffers from 7th grade drama. The most enjoyable part of the workplace is clock-out time, as the higher ups are adamant about you leaving AS SOON AS YOUR SHIFT ENDS. – less

Very busy
Management not very helpful in getting to know the store and company

a typical night for me was shutting down registers, counting cash for the pulls and aduits at night, dealing with customers , doing transactions,returns,exchanges,giftcards ect, wiping down counters and make sure my sections was locked up for the night.

friendly c-worker and managers
