My coworkers & my people leader

Helping customers find excellent quality items st highly discounted prices!

Equally, fairness, and management that work with employees, that ask us our concern and opinion,

Starbucks breaks make me happy.

I am happy the most when I can be of service to the customer.

Selling Macy fine Jewelry it's awesome love my customers making them happy with the piece of jewelry that they brought for Macy's that's important to me

I enjoy customer service and helping with product selections.

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?

Not enough cashiers. Store in Kalamazoo is rin down and dirty

Employees aren't paid a good enough or high enough salary, according to their time with the company and experience, knowledge, work habits. They're treated and paid like someone who walks in off the street woot the same experience. It's SAD!!

Good management that cares for it's employees

Team attitude training and work attitude

We can offer more of a discount to customers for opening a credit card account. We can use cash registers that operate faster so we can move the line along for the hollidays.

Everything is going wrong and managment needs to be reevaluated!!!

Management and the bad treatment

I think Macy's is a dying company-- they refuse to update for a changing era and as a result, they will be left behind. Poor organization, tacky items, unreasonable prices, bad marketing, and strictly gendered toy sections.

They need to be more specific when they advertise there sale on what brand and how much the sale. They need to have good communication with the staff and employees.. they need to explain the benefits of a colleague's more specific and transparent

Review from Sales Dept

Better coverage to help with dressing room Very unfair to ask one employee to take care of four dressing rooms

All I listen to is bad feedback. Personally I agree with the customers. The leadership is a lone ship of blissful ignorance papeling credit and falsely indicating customer experience metrics.

Management has fostered this environment where only positive praise (regardless if its deserved) is excepted. Anything else is labeled as negative and should be censored. All care and improvements for hourly are only done reactively to make the company not look bad publicly.

manager needs to follow company protocall about giving every employee fair hour

everything needs to change to make the company culture better

Systems and employee evaluation needs to be more relevant

Review from Sales Dept

mismangement and miscommunications that causes delays and frustrations lack good training and promotions, good workers instead favorites.

Upper management needs to be schooled

Dirty store, management is terrible

No help. Very few employees

There is poor to none stock of products, which always sell, always out of stock of important items. And nothing to do with pandemic. It was always like this

Review from Engineering Dept

What would you most like to see improved at your company?

more transparency among the leadership

Review from IT Dept

Fire all managers and hire ones that actually have customer service skills. Not condescending bullies, that get away in treating veteran employees like trash. Most lack communications skills and are lazy leave sales associates alone on major sales days with up to 15 customers.

Review from Sales Dept

hire people that are not lazy and can get the job done without being told to

Management needs to appreciate employee

Review from Sales Dept

Employees slacking off

Employee shifts are terrible.

Sometimes leadership doesn't have a clear direction.
