Let us know what's going on

Please. We're hearing absolutely nothing and being kept in the dark is making this whole thing ten times worse.

If you are a Visual Captain in a G50 door and are laying you off, it's not because they are getting rid of visual. It's because they are replacing you with a Visual Manager.

I'm a VC in a F50 door and was told my last day will be the 26th unless I want to apply for any openings (all sales positions) . Keeping visual based on volumn doesn't make sense because we are a growth door. I think some stores just haven't spoken to there people yet. It may be a good time for a new start.

It sounds like they’re going back to what they were trying to do just before the pandemic. Remember when very briefly small doors had a Visual Specialist instead of a Visual Manager?

So who is going to do visual? Is it true they are bringing back Visual Managers? Are the some of the SMMs going to go back to pure visual now?

Current role visual captain , all visual captain roles are being cut. Does not matter the volume of the store.

As someone who lost their job the last round of layoffs, I will tell you, there is life after Macys. Good luck to everyone today.

Your department leader has between 11-4pm to discuss with the impacted colleagues and discuss with your team. I hope they do it sooner rather than later.

someone on the other thread said "All announcements to impacted colleges will be made at 11am." so I'd also like to hear if any individual has gotten some kind of notification, so far my coworkers and I have not, other than a teamwide meeting scheduled for 2pm ET.
