Pros

great place to build a career quickly if you put your effort into it. love customer base. enjoy the store culture. i really have built special relationships with fellow employees and even customers. if you have great communication,presentation andpeople skills this the place for you. they are flexible with your schedule. love working at nordstrom.

Cons

for a salesperson like myself it is definitely the return policy because it definitely affects your paycheck, but it gives more drive to keep up with sales goals. in these tough economic times not getting paid hour plus commision is a downside.

Pros

Decent base pay, somewhat autonomous, great tip potential.

Cons

The company has changed for the worse since COVID. When I came back the mood of the entire store had shifted. Gone were the days of comradery, customer focus, and taking pride in a job well done. In its place there is a new culture of cutthroat sales, a severe decline in customer focus, and worst of all a new focus on profit over customer satisfaction. When I was told that the amount the store charged for a shoe shine was not enough to do the best job I could for a customer I knew things had gone downhill for the company. Not to mention I watch a manager prey on a mentally disabled person in order to secure a sale, when the person could not understand what was being offered. Sad that such a once great company is now just another greed ridden corporation.
