Is the Company really deleting open shifts when the new schedules come out on Friday’s or are they being deleted at store level?? Seems awfully strange to delete a shift before they give anyone a chance to pick them up…..hmm

I wonder how long more they are going to be reducing hours. It’s frustrating to be alone in the morning during the VIP sale. The coverage just sucks.

Is it true that Macys has lowered its hourly guarantee for its hourly employees? Part time 8 hours / 1 day a week Full time 28 hours / 4 days

In the past, the schedule usually drops at 7AM on Fridays. Does any know if the drop down time has changed?

New job title? Associate Reverse Logistics Sales? all this sounds to me like they are gonna chop all district teams and do stuff at store level

I just read that Target is going to start doing returns at curbside and some can even can pick up Starbucks curbside, by the end of summer. Oh Lordy, God help us if Macys starts this. Nightmare.

Sr Manager Inventory and Sales? New job title? anyone know what this is?

Looks like Macys did change the return policy to 30 days for most items. Not sure how long Macys started this, they just posted it in my area. I’m sure managers will just have us override everything. So annoying.

Cultural mindset or more Kool Aide Go!

I don't think layoffs at the store level are even possible. I don't know about the rest of you, but we are down to a skeleton crew as it is. If they remove more people, they might as well lock the doors and throw away the key. It will not be possible... — read more

Is anyone else having issues with the Macy’s app? The in-store map feature is gone, which I love, and there’s a lot of weird glitches and performance issues. I’ve seen sites like this act this way when they are hacked.
