Macy's Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"Horrible pay, I can't even pay my bills. I'll need a second job!"

"There is no hope for improvement."

"Macy's is a good company to work for overall. In the Account Coordinator role there is little power and a lot of responsibility, so I would just advise anyone considering this position to take that into consideration and make sure they have great relationship and persuasion skills."

"I have worked for Macy's Systems and Tech for few months now, and I find the work life balance and work environment to be great. However, the opportunity for advancement and learning new technologies are almost non-existent."

"I have worked for Macy's for over 15 years. Until recently it was a great company but our current District Vice President is extremely unprofessional and has created a tense work environment. Very sad as there are many great associates and managers in the company but so many are unhappy due to her behavior and the behavior that the people on her team exhibit when they are in the stores."

"I loved working there. Actually I cried on my last day but had no choice. I was offered $20,000 dollars more a year. However, I didn't care for the HR department, they said anytime I wanted to come back I could. I have tried numerous times and never was able to go back. Meanwhile they did everything to try to keep me there."

"A place of support, recognition, teamwork, ethical commitments, flexibility, work-life balance and widespread respect. Growth and reward for both merit and achievement. Passionate company that puts the customer at the center of its every focus. Management that motivates throughout all levels. Rewarding day to day."

"Retail may not be for everyone however, always seem greater opportunities, like being a part of a support team."

"I've worked here for 10+ years. I've listed some developer-mindset observations based on my experience. - Work culture has shifted to sink-or-swim and "walking on egg-shells." - Average work break-down: 70% meetings/docs, 20% supporting chronic issues, 10% new dev. - Growing number of weak and inexperienced managers. Recent experience... a core retail support systems manager asked, "what is a department/vendor?" - High-performers = babysit others. - Below average facility: cube farm, lines in bathrooms."

"Macy's is not the best place to work for. Its one thing if you're in school and its just to get by, but when you're looking to advance and display real skills and expertise, its not the place for you. I have worked for Macy's for 3 years, have a degree, and experience in retail as well as management. I have helped more than double the sales for one of the smallest stores in the market and have helped trained several of the store's managers, but was never given the opportunity to become one."
