Optimal store format

I genuinely think that the ideal store size for Macy’s in the future is a mix of larger and small stores! As a shopper, I would want to go to places that have the best selection. The smaller stores in the strip malls are a good strategy on paper, but... — read more

Narcissist People Leader Makes Own Rules

Stay optimistic

I was looking at financials for ttl Macy’s business and we are currently up 18.4% to plan and only down 5.5% to LY, YTD and the margin between LY and TY is so small too in sales dollars so this is really incredible and exciting to see. Both Macy’s... — read more 

June inventory

Looks like June inventory is June 22 and 23. I’m not planning on working the 23rd because that’s backstage inventory even though my manager says I have to. Is there any way to get out of it without my store manager getting all over me?

Bye-bye Macy's Money

I think it's sh-i-tty and cheap of Macy's to get rid of MM. It was a nice little pick me up on the rare opportunity that I got it (not a sales colleague) and I imagine it would incentivise people to purchase more. Now we're going to have quarterly... — read more

Bold strategy

So let me get this straight, they're handing all the hours to new hires to keep them from quitting, while the rest of us who've been holding this place together get scraps? Do they really think we'll just sit quietly while being treated like... — read more 

Concerns about work environment and motivation

Now I understand how, once upon a time, good managers became just “efficient, good-enough” managers. Trust me—I love my job and genuinely care. I’m not a perfectionist, but I do my best every single day. Lately, though, I’ve been feeling less and... — read more

Why are our selling floors looking so empty and our stockrooms are loaded with brand new merchandise?. As I merchandiser, I was told I could place one of each size on the floor and the rest goes in the stock room. I have one linen size large shirt... — read more 

Tariffs

How will the tariffs affect stock levels? Are there many catetgories that wont ship? Are we cutting orders? Anyone not disgruntled have a real answer?

Sh!t show central

The morale in our store is at an all-time low and our store manager is a self righteous, big headed narcissist. No one wants to work here anymore. We have no foot traffic anymore and things are just looking worse by the minute. They’re only putting... — read more 

How does a store run with just 2 CXE's??

Currently have 3, 1 leaving and not being replaced. 2 level store. Other stores that have just 2, how does that work?? We have 3 Sales Captains. How are departments split between just 2 managers?

Macy's Shoe Expeditor position

Give me a rundown on this position. Seems interesting! Sounds like a mix of Receiving and Merchandising but strictly for shoes?

Supply Chain Supervisors going away

No more supply chain supervisors as People leaders, head counts going down as they will now be Leads. They all have to reapply for minimal roles. The pay is less, announcement supposed to be made tomorrow network-wide. Everyone else severance by May... — read more 

Just go

Pack up and move on because staying just isn’t worth the stress. I left a few months ago and I'm finally starting to feel better about myself (thanks Aldi for the lifeline). I didn’t even realize how wound-up and drained I was until I got out. Life... — read more 

Never felt this hopeless in years

I’ve been with Macy’s for a long time. Even during the rough patches, there was always a sense that someone was trying to turn things around. But lately, it feels like neither we nor Macy’s have a future. It’s as if everyone’s given up on the idea of... — read more
