Pros

Yea, fancy stuff, fun! Your job sounds important. You get to be snobby about things like reasonible cost of merchandise.

Cons

Horrible benefits, low pay compared to industry standard, secretive management, unfulfilled promotion promises. Most people leave Neimans for JC Penney competitive pay. Also, job is expected to be your life.

Pros

* If you have an amazing team and management the day goes by fast. * Commission. * Easy to rely on foot traffic to meet goals. * If you ask for growth, they set thing ups that align with what you want, you just need to ask.

Cons

* If its slow, its SLOW. * There can be drama, it just depends on the department you're in.

Pros

Employee discount and free samples

Cons

A toxic environment where sales are almost zero because vendors are pulling their product off the shelf because their bills aren’t getting paid. They’re in the middle of coming out of a bankruptcy , if a client does come in, we usually don’t have the product to sell them ,only lines who are partially thriving is fragrance ! The hours are terrible. You get off work at nine and you’re expected to be back at 9:30 AM.
