Pros

staff discount is the only thing I can think of

Cons

manager has her favors as a result other staff had been treated very unfairly. She hired way too many Christmas casuals and some of them didn't even get one shift. She also lied to other staff saying the store was not busy so few Christmas casual had been made to leave even before Christmas. And all her favorites are from the same background(racial-wise). Besides, she had made good sales people leave because she saw them as a threat and only kept those who would be a dog or with poor performance. She doesn't think in the company's interest but her own. In terms of shifts, she would cancel your shift at the last second when you are already on your way to work or mess your payslip up so you get paid short. She is the worst manager I ever come across and start to wonder how she could possibly get the job.

Pros

Customers, pay, benefits. That’s it

Cons

Little to no training. Instead of allowing me to complete all of my online training courses I was directed to constantly shadow staff on the sales floor. I wasn’t properly shown how to use the scheduling system or given the how to guides within proper timing. So I was trained on how to be a sales associate not a store manager. Then thrown into my permanent location during Valentine’s holiday. So I had to learn a lot in a short amount of time with no real help or guidance. District manager was very overwhelming and overbearing. Highschool mined staff who start drama and rumors. Staff also had a major entitlement issue, someone wanted the manger position but didn’t get it I guess. No one is genuine there or trying to help you as a new manager. There’s a strict phone policy however, main comms happen on your phone so the policy is highly contradictory. If you’re not overly chipper and a yes man your Dm won’t like you and may say something like “I don’t think you’re a good fit here” after your first meeting, they make you feel very uncomfortable. It was so bad the Macys workers would ask me if I was ok when my Dm wasn’t around!! The energy is really bad here RUN!
