Job changes
Job changes? Lay offs? When will we know.
Is anyone else seeing this with new hires?
We are so short-staffed right now it's unreal. I'm not sure who they're hiring these days, but the new folks in my store have zero experience and just stand around for most of the day. It's nothing like it used to be. It makes the job ten times... — read more

What's the timeline?
Since the 8th clearly didn't give us the answers we all wanted, does anyone ACTUALLY know the real date for the release of the next closure list? For stores,not distribution centers.
If business has been doing well, that still doesn't mean there won't be cuts
There's no limit to greed. We get the short end of the stick whether the business is booming or busting. Don't ever relax, especially in retail. Better to always be on the lookout for other options. You never know - you may come across a better... — read more
A high-performing store
My store is high-performing, do we have anything to worry about? I remember reading a while ago somebody complained about being blindsided with closing since the location was high-performing, but I thought the person was trolling. Does it ever happen... — read more

Just curious if anyone knows if any New York stores are closing. I work at a New York store & don’t believe my store is in danger of closing because we are in a mall & it was busy during the holiday season but I know one or two around me might be. — read more

New in store Starbucks
Seems like a lot of new in store Starbucks have been popping up (non kiosk). Is the goal to roll this out to most of the renovation stores that don't currently have a Starbucks in their mall? The Starbucks in my mall left during the pandemic so this... — read more
Anyone know how severance pay works?? what if they offer you a position at another location and you decline?

Is January 8th closure announcement day?

Apparently im on one of these "lists"... When do employees find out. It is a pretty cr-ppy mall and i heard some coworkers discussing redeveleopment. So far my manager hasnt said anything
Who knows
Anyone has inside info on store job cuts? Managers everywhere are concerned. Every year. I swear Macy's is the worst at this.
Store closing? List it here.
If you know that your store is closing, feel free to list it below. For example.. Columbia Place
How long before we go out of business?
They can only close so many stores before there’s nothing left to cut. At the pace they’re going, having ten stores left in five years would feel like a miracle. This really looks like a slow death by a thousand cuts for Macy’s.

How’s your store treating you!?
Just curious how other store managers supported their teams during the holiday season. Our location did not receive any form of acknowledgment — not even a simple holiday greeting. There were no small gestures of appreciation such as candy, food, or... — read more
How are you holding up?
My store has been very busy, and we’ve been run off our feet. Partly that’s due to incompetent management, but there’s also been a lot of customer traffic. I’m hearing that not all stores have been this crowded. I’m curious to see what the final... — read more

Macys Clearance Store
I like this concept and I noticed that they are starting to do this at some locations. I only know of one and that’s the Brunswick Square store over by New Jersey. Interesting and didn’t expect this at all, but I’ve always thought they should do... — read more
