Pros

Truly value diversity. Innovative. Many smart people work at Neiman Marcus. Iconic brand. Good pay. Great employee sales. If you love fashion and luxury, you'll likely love it here.

Cons

Cut throat culture where it can be more about "what I did" versus "what can I do to help you." Honestly, I felt like a bit of an outsider the whole time I was there, and more like a means to an end than a valued member of the team. For instance, it felt like colleagues were looking for ways they could use me to advance their own careers, or not share information fully with me because it might get me ahead instead of them. There are many hungry young fashion lovers at Neiman Marcus who seem like they'll do almost anything to advance. Smart, yes, but lacking foundational business experience. Probably a necessary evil, but much more pronounced at Neiman Marcus than I've seen at other companies. Would I work there again someday? Yes, for the right position, working with the right people.

Pros

* If you have an amazing team and management the day goes by fast. * Commission. * Easy to rely on foot traffic to meet goals. * If you ask for growth, they set thing ups that align with what you want, you just need to ask.

Cons

* If its slow, its SLOW. * There can be drama, it just depends on the department you're in.

Pros

good pay, good retired tech/fashion prop sales, hour long lunches

Cons

terrible work environment with whole bunch of eating disorder talk and projection at models (even from some management), management makes everyone stay until 4:30 even when all the minimum work requirement (and oftentimes more) is done, they will write you up for something extremely small then dismiss a big thing from another employee, terrible communication between managers therefore terrible communication to employees, employees get publicly ridiculed when they're just asking questions even amidst the terrible communication issues that are already there,
