After working at this sinking ship for almost 10 years, barely making $11.50 an hour, having to do the work of 6 people, I had the manager of Dillard's walk through the store about two weeks ago. Handed me his card and asked me to call him if I... — read more
Do you help your colleagues?
It is never a problem for me to help any of my colleagues. Also, from time to time I needed someone's help as well. However, I have a colleague who literally takes advantage of this. I think he started asking for help even when he didn't need it at... — read more
Is displaying favoritism in the workplace is illegal?
People don't leave bad jobs, but bad bosses - that's right. In addition to the job being hard enough, my manager further complicates the situation by giving preferential treatment to some colleagues for reasons that are absolutely unrelated to... — read more
Has your health deteriorated here?
The other day I had my first panic attack here, which I thought was a heart attack. It happened after a bit of an ugly situation with the manager. It doesn’t surprise me at all that this happened to me because I’m under constant stress. I work like a... — read more
How do you get along with colleagues?
At my previous job, also in the retail sector, I had colleagues who were good people and with whom it was a pleasure to work. Although I am a very social person, I haven't been able to fit in with my new colleagues for several months now, and... — read more
Beauty Extra Colleague Discount
Is is true that Lancôme is excluded from the upcoming Beauty Extra Colleague Discount.
Don’t make waves
I was told this yesterday. I was also told that I could be jeopardizing my job by fellow coworkers. Am I supposed to just smile at my manager and tell her how wonderful and smart she is just to feed her ego? No job is worth having your self-esteem... — read more
Sales associates getting paid time and a half on weekends
At our store support is pi**ed. It’s not fair that we will not get paid the time and a half. Our management team is clueless. She announced this morning that support can pick up selling shifts to make time and a half but it’s not possible. We are... — read more

Integrated Workforce OVM
Any rumors or ideas on what will happen to OVMs after the integrated workforce pilot goes company wide?
Macy's CEO makes 552 times as much as his employees. The average CEO in America makes 320 times as much .
Mr G is rewarded very well for low morale and high turnover and a 45.9% part time workforce without health benefits. Then they still shake down employees for donations for their own causes. What a social disgrace.
This is what I think will happen
This is what I think will happen : with the new roll out of associates doing markdowns and merchandising i think this will be in full effect before summer hits. i also think that sales managers / ops/vs and leads will all start to be cut before... — read more

Anyone know if you can get unemployment if you were fired from Macy’s? I just got a letter for unemployment compensation for employee.
A social organization or a business?

How do you manage to work when you feel targeted?
Lately, my manager's behavior towards me has changed a lot and I feel like it's a sign that they will soon inform me that they don't need me anymore. I am very aware of that. In the meantime, I can't find a new job and I'm under a lot of stress. I... — read more
Macy's Website - Jobs
Why doesn't Macy's state whether the job is PT or FT on the online portal? Are they all PT positions?
Store Manage decides what "leadership" looks like
I have been an executive with Macy's for 9 years. A month ago, my manager pulls me in and out of the blue states that I am inconsistent in my leadership behaviors and he has felt this way for a while. This was the very first I had heard anything... — read more
Software issues, really?
I don’t believe that the reason the company advertises jobs for which it doesn’t hire new people is a software issue. This cannot be true no matter how much they try to convince us that this is the reason. Are there really people who believe in... — read more

Go Kohl's, Go!!! https://www.retaildive.com/news/kohls-tommy-hilfiger-partnership-is-another-blow-to-macys-malls/598720/
Why are you getting so emotionally invested in Macy's?
I can't believe how many people are getting emotionally invested in Macy's and what's been happening with it. Macy's is not your company. It's not a company you built so you need to get all bent out of shape over it. It's a place that pays you... — read more
These things speak volumes
Sadly when you have executives who refuse to actually observe stores incognito they tend to fall over. When Walmart pays its employees more than Macy’s you know there’s a serious problem. When 60+ year old women tell you Macys is cheap and messy and... — read more

OVM’s incentive
Does anyone know how the OVM incentives work? Or is there no such a thing
Sometimes I wonder if they experience it too
My store manager is a total control freak, in a very negative sense. She does not control employees to prevent something bad from happening, but just the opposite. I have a feeling that her goal is to constantly look for mistakes in order to... — read more
MBA/OVM Question

We all deserve kudos and high 5s (because raises and pay suck)
