Briefly describe your overall experience at your company
What do you like best about the leadership team?
What I like best about the current leadership team is that they are colleagues before leaders, and that some of them take an opportunity to listen and not listen to respond. Allowing internal promotions and opportunities to learn and grow.
They are all pretty Knowleable and willing to help or believe i can achieve on my own
Best leadership team I ever worked for
Responsive, on the ball, backs employees
Authentic and down to earth
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Needs a better leader in fragrance
It's not What you say it's how you say it. Especially when you're working with people nowadays. When the customers treat you better than the associates in the Store leadership should take a look at their leadership team. This is for the Bloomingdale and chestnut Hill.
Communication development training and listening
Treat everyone equally. And not just pick a favorite
Do know what would help
What is the best part about your compensation package?
The best part I love about this company is the opportunity to work and earn a degree if you meet the minimum requirements at no cost to yourself.
Good balance of salary, bonus, and long term equity
401k, discounts, insurance, hours, flexibility
Im retired money is not a motivational factor its nice but you have to have a feeling of fulfillment and usefulness After going out for dinner and Bloomingdales a100% of my salrey is gone and thats ok
401K, is fair, benefits ok
Review from Sales Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
More base pay, benefits and arrangement is good but havent given me the full guidance on how to obtain these benefits.. more clarity on how i can make more
Conversation about my oppurtunkes and streghts
Treat everyone the same and better pay for what we have to do
Paid an equitable wage for 17 years of knowledge and experience, and amount if work expected.
I believe compensation commission coukd be higher or hourly wage + commission. It is a classy store with great designers and customer base and should match the brand and mission of the store.
What are some of the best things about your team?
The only good thing is some of the co workers ive met at the flagship. We've had really good employees come but they rarely stay long since its so disfunctional. We have had the store hire mentally ill people and an actual convicted child predator so this made things very uncomfortable for us.
Review from Operations Dept
My floor we are cohesive, we bring some peace to each other and keep some motivation going
Review from Sales Dept
Everyone is working hard for themselves which is motivation to see, very knowledgeable about merchandise and how to play the system
This store works as a team!
Great people great leaders great store
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Stop taking away customers and sales and work and help each other
stop disappearing for hours, clean up after themselves, complete the daily tasks that are required so it isn't always the same people doing everything
Replace leadership and executive team, and hire the table group as organizational consultants.
Be under better leadership. The selling floor managers are never anywhere to be found and never on the floor. They set the tone which is why no one wants to do anything. Poor leaders!
Review from Sales Dept
Their egos need to change
Review from Sales Dept
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
The customers that come for the experience makes it a positive feeling that's why we are here
Review from Sales Dept
I love my team, and even when I'm not ringing up, we have a good flow, someone runs to stock room, someone on the floor, very good
Review from Sales Dept
AT bloomingdales we are colleagues that are more like a family. I work with all races, ethnicities and genders and however my colleagues choose to identify. We respect one another and support the right and professional behavior that is expected of us according to HR best practices.
Growth mindset and diversity with all the floors working as one
My people leader shows support
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Motivate the employees on the floor as well as well as being kind to the housekeeping staff
Better treatment of employees and be fair
better leadership, hire more professional people
Complete leadership and executive team replacement.
Our department need a strong manager, not a boos, not micromanagement
What did you like most about the interview process?
The interview process was very easy. It was as if they were eager to hire and were happy with basic qualifications. They are not very picky and will hire most people if they have positions open.
I connected with the manager when we spoke and it felt promising when I gave my answers and selling techniques
Review from Sales Dept
I really liked the onboarding team
Review from Sales Dept
Personable and professional and positive
Communication used between persons to transfer
What would you improve about your company's interview process?
Communication is a must and dorsnt hapen often
Implement a standardized in-house interview process--woth oversight and onsite HR Manager.
Improve the management team, they need training
Just managers should change to make it better

What makes you most happy at work?
My customers make me very happy
Review from Sales Dept
What makes me most happy is to know that I am providing a service to the customer, making them feel apart of the Bloomingdales family, treating them with respect while adhering to the company's policy. Policy & Procedure is at the core of my being.
Making a customer like their shopping experience!
Interaction with customer and serving them
Good relationships snd making great commissions
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Update your horrible b- connected system for more user friendly, discover talented people and give them support, educate upper management how to do their job without harassing their associates, bring real HR team who can help and support us.
Not enough associates and triple work on us and pay more and better treatment
The management is not good and need improvement
I cannot work in negative environment that our managers make for us
