Shades of "2001 A Space Odyssey"
"What are you doing Hal?" Just looked at ISM "computer generated schedule" for ISM rollout: There are people scheduled for shifts THAT WERE FIRED OR QUIT A YEAR AGO!!!! Yeah, this is gonna work.
Manager secretive about ISM
My manager is secretive about it. I tried to ask him some things that interested me about ISM, but I didn’t get an answer. Now I wonder if it's just my manager or are they still very secretive about this issue?
Neighborhood Stores Closing Plan Canceled?
I recently looked in MacyInc. store count for Q1 2022 and noticed that there wasn't a separate category for neighborhood stores like the previous quarters had. Does this mean that those 51 stores previously classified as neighborhood stores have... — read more
Roll out of ISP around the corner. Is your store ready?
It's coming. We've been hearing about it for months and it's almost here. While our store made an early attempt at setting up training schedules, most of my co-workers had their training cancelled because they were needed on the floor. Is this roll... — read more
Holiday pay
I have to work Memorial Day. Do we not get paid holiday pay and a holiday for working that day? Normally it would show premium holiday pay but it doesn't show that at all.
This sounds so familiar

Strong quarterly report
https://www.barrons.com/articles/macys-stock-price-earnings-51653497791?tesla=y I hope "better than expected earnings" mean there will be no cuts, at least not any time soon?
Earnings announcement
Macys is going to report earnings tomorrow. If they say they beat estimates, I’m going to assume some seriously creative accounting took place. Anyone who’s been to any Macys store this past year has stepped over the piles of overpriced, out of... — read more
It is worth taking time to polish the resume
I recently left Macy's. I absolutely understand those who write that they are still here mostly because of their laziness to polish their resumes and send out applications. Besides, I thought I wouldn’t be able to get anything better because I... — read more
Insurance
How come monthly insurance increased 10 times and instead of 104 we have to pay 1192 monthly for medical only? Is it a mistake?
Titanic
I wonder after reading the truths about macys and how everyone tried to get me fired or tried to railroad me out and just being cut in June of 2020 seem like a blessing and after reading all of this i think who ever tried to get me out got the short... — read more
Go Backs, Rods, Rails, Teams Calls, and Emails
What a crazy place to work nowadays. A month ago we were being told no more hours or overtime, people were being coached if they stayed five minutes late and even asked to leave early. Fast forward four or five weeks and everyone seems surprised... — read more
JUNETEENTH
With June coming around the corner, you got Graduations going on, Father's Day and PRIDE Month. With Macy's being a "diverse" company, do they pay their employees for JUNETEENTH??? After all it is a federally obsrrved Holiday.
ISM is horrible
I don't know anyone who has a positive opinion of ISM. Maybe someone does after all?
All the reasons people got fired here?
I’ve heard of some cases where Macy’s fired employees for the smallest thing. Is that really true? I'm interested in the reasons why the company fired you or fired someone you know.
Drive
I remember coming to work and putting my mind in sales mode.. I worked in a commission area . I would open at least 3 Macys high percent cards a shift.. had managers come by and bribe with Macys money to open more. or sign up people to anything.. I... — read more
What's keeping you at Macy's?
It's certainly not one of the better employers, even just in retail. It's not hard to find a new job, it took me all of two weeks once I started looking. Greener pastures abound, and yet so many of you are refusing to take advantage of it. Is it the... — read more
Macy's Sweat Shop, Literally!!!
Given how similar many responses are to other topics, I was wondering if other stores are as unbearably hot to work in as mine is. Employees are perspiring, sweat running down their faces and down their backs, as they attempt to do their jobs... — read more
Those times have passed
I don’t know anyone who started looking for a new job and failed to find one in a reasonable amount of time. I'm just wondering if managers here know how to manage in any other way that doesn't include fear tactics? The time when they could manage... — read more
INTEGRATED SELLING MODULE aka ISM
Yep, it's coming!!! If your store hasn't dotted their i's and crossed their t's and prepped for this, your in deep cr-p!!! Store leaders should have identified all key players, started training and individually has spoken to each colleague about... — read more
The condition of our store is horrible
The building in our store is 45 years old. The store is breaking down little by little. Both stairway aren't working and the floor elevator and freight elevator isn't working either. The ceiling in sales floor is breaking down too and the A/C is just... — read more
Covid pay
Do you get covid pay if you live with someone who got Covid? And you didn’t get it. Or just you have to be positive?
You can do better than this
I was laid off four years ago this month in the cuts to IT...best thing that ever happened to me. Not immediately, mind you: I spent almost two years working contract gigs, low pay, no benefits, no job security. But I kept looking for better, and... — read more
SMALL STORE FORMAT+ DOWNSTREAM FULLFILLMENT EXPANSION
Just trying to see if any other "small door" know if they are a part of this new strategy? I'm a Neighborhood Door that is beating metrics and is consistintly ranked one of the Top doors in our District/Region. Hearing about things happening before... — read more
Not even pretending to care
Long service veteran employee working in a store of managers that don’t even pretend to care about their staff or the condition of the store. Once again my manager goes off on vacation without telling the team or having a workload plan. When we... — read more

Macy’s needs to adapt or change

Stores in decline
Just a few months ago I thought my store was in terrible shape and that it couldn’t get any worse. Wrong. Already in bad shape it became an even bigger mess. Are there any examples of positive changes happening in any of the stores? I sincerely... — read more

Drinking coffee
The store manager is a nut case and doesn't like it when people drink coffee on the job. meanwhile i have no help and I'm completely exhausted and i came back from lunch with the dreaded coffee in my hand from good ole 3 bucks aka Starbucks. The... — read more
Macy’s is the next Sears
Do I need to say more? Seems like they are going the way of the dinosaur just like Sears/Kmart.
Does anyone care to make this a better place?
My impression is that none of the people at the top here are worried anymore about how to make this a better place. Have they all given up on Macy’s and are now looking only at their personal, individual interests? Does anyone think about the... — read more
Exton Mall sold to developer
Exton Mall has been sold to a developer which means it will be shuddered in the next few years. It’s one of the countries “dying malls”. Sad to see it go.
Declining PTO
I see associates always getting PTO put in even when the schedule is already out. I want to put in 2 days for PTO and one of the managers declined me. I went to the office and told them it was for religious holiday and she had to ask one of the... — read more

Overtime
Is any store doing any sort of OT? Noticed MSP now has a "Violates Overtime Rule" if you try to pick up a shift that puts you over 40 hrs.
I think sumthin’s up
I have a funny feeling my job is closing I work at Exton mall Macys and it recently has been sold…..me or my employees don’t have a clue what’s going on. I’m curious
