In the new ISM rollout does a speciality manager exist as a leadership role? Who is going to oversee Big Ticket, Fine Jewelry and Beauty?

The store where I work is not very big. I understand that Macy’s cares about bigger stores being better stuffed, but I’m really disappointed at how smaller stores are neglected. We can hardly work with so few employees. This problem has been... — read more 

When the Pilot rolled out, they reported to the OVM in conjunction with Visual and they would help where needed. During Q4 they signed, did fulfillment, helped replenish, recover, process truck. Whatever needed to get done. Now, I'm not so sure... — read more

Does anyone know when or if there will be a spring employee fragrance event. It’s usually in April before Friend & Family and Mother’s Day?

I've only been here two months. I came here after being fired from my previous job for the d-mbest reason ever. I believe the real reason is the animosity of the manager looking for a way to get rid of me. Does it ever happen at Macy's that someone... — read more 

Is there a new calendar for extra employee discount days ? The only one I can find is for 2021.

It seems every day, Macys hires or announces a new SVP of something. What happened to “de-layering” the organization? Our jobs have gotten cumbersome with all of the layoffs, consolidations and function eliminations. Our engagement scores keep... — read more

Can anyone in a pilot store give any insight on how signing will play out since it’s now back of house with receiving captain overseeing it? Do merchandisers not have to sign now? Do receiving associates have to sign and do markdowns?

I heard someone in my store say that some high volume Macy’s stores will have a small Bloomingdales store within a store (kind of like backstage, but smaller). The department would feature some of Bloomingdales luxury brands and would be stocked... — read more

Just wondering if Macys will still be giving out the quarterly incentive to all clocking associates if a store makes their numbers? Even though they are giving out huge bonuses to top selling performers?

I’ve heard between now and June Macys will implement a program where all front of house associates do everything…..ring register, recovery, put out new stock. Associates who formally just put out stock and did markdowns….now have to sell and ring... — read more 

What is a merchandise captain? In my store no one mention about this position to any members of the merchandise team. So they put a sales captain in that position. Why didn’t they ask the the old leads if they wanted this position.

IDK. But perhaps Macy's could donate some portion of Backstage clothing to an organization that could get it to the borders where refugees are crossing with only the clothes on their backs. Write off the donations at full value and get positive PR. — read more

Will they still have the $5000 incentive if you sell $700,000 in a year. It seems impossible if you have to be merchandising half of the day,plus there will be less registers. Will it be replaced by something else?

Any direction about when we can go to mask optional, as Target, Walmart and other major retailers have?
