Pros

One of the best reasons to work at nordstrom is the employee discount, followed by the relaxed supervision, another good reason is that you earn your pay based on comission.

Cons

They are not very flexable when it comes to something else you have going on in your life- say school. They are a career focused organization and they seem to think "nordstroms for life" which is fine if your okay with making less than 24,000 a year for the rest of your life.

Pros

Decent base pay, somewhat autonomous, great tip potential.

Cons

The company has changed for the worse since COVID. When I came back the mood of the entire store had shifted. Gone were the days of comradery, customer focus, and taking pride in a job well done. In its place there is a new culture of cutthroat sales, a severe decline in customer focus, and worst of all a new focus on profit over customer satisfaction. When I was told that the amount the store charged for a shoe shine was not enough to do the best job I could for a customer I knew things had gone downhill for the company. Not to mention I watch a manager prey on a mentally disabled person in order to secure a sale, when the person could not understand what was being offered. Sad that such a once great company is now just another greed ridden corporation.
