Cons

They lure you in with false hope that you can grow within the company, that they celebrate diversity and that they care about you as a worker. It's all lies. I worked there from opening and from day 1 I was sexually assaulted by customers AND managers, verbally harassed, made fun of for my race, body size, sexuality and what I ate and even how I spoke. Multiple time I went to HR , regional managers and even the store manager and nothing was done. THEY DON'T PROTECT or BELIEVE VICTIMS. Here's a list of a few things Nordstrom stands behind: - They are taught to racially profile customers and will follow you around the store if you are BIPOC or have tattoos because "You will steel" -They will make fun of you if you don't fit their "ideal clientele" - If you don't look like you have money you will be ignored - If you are trans they tell you which washroom you may use and yell at you if you use the accessible washroom. All because they don't want to offend the customer. - They will do all they can to save a buck, lie about how much vacation you have and even threaten to not pay you out if you don't want to take it. They say you "use it or lose it"... which is against BC law. - They WILL AVOID hiring you if you a physical disability, and if you are hired and then tell them you need something to aid you in your work, they will not give it to you. - They will willingly carry products owned by racist companies. EX. Micheal Kors, Tory Burch, Vancouver Candle Co. - Lastly, YOU WILL NEVER GET A PAY RAISE! They do a tier system for support staff and once you hit the top, you will never make more. So if you are Visual, LP, Logistics, Customer service you will NEVER make more then $47K a year.
