Pros
work life balance, discounts on merchandise, free pizza and taco days, community involvement
Cons
What I disliked the most was - 1. Unless you are deemed a high potential or well-liked by senior management, you're completely on your own. It is really all about who you know since there are alot of office politics at Macys. These people that are selected behind closed doors through an executive committee to be groomed; mentored and fast tracked to management positions. This made it much tougher for the regular staff to get ahead with the company. All the fast tracked people were aggressively recruited to fill positions during the reorganization while a a big majority of everyone else had to fend for themselves. 2. The human resources department has been very error proned when it came to communications with the people that were and have been laid off. Just ask any person that was part of the 7000 layoffs to confirm this statement that I just made.
