Topics regarding layoffs at Neiman Marcus Group
Chairman Paul Brown: Now that you've met GVR and team can you do one of your famous listening sessions with those of us actually doing the work?
You can assess the gap between GVR, his team and the rest of us. It gets bigger every day. https://www.businessinsider.com/inspire-brands-ceo-paul-brown-asks-same-questions-after-acquisition-2019-9
We should just go online?
maybe that wouldn’t be bad either. The pressure created by competition from online rivals is too great. Someone has already suggested in one of the posts that we should just go just online and I absolutely agree, I think that would be a good move. I... — read more
Who's Minding the Store?? Not the Board. Not GVR. Mr. Stanley would not approve.
Not looking to relive the past. But looking for leadership. And there's no one home.
Fact check: Was the GVR Cadillac health plan shared with the judge so anyone could object?
GVR said yes but It appears it was conventially omitted! Not a surprise. How could we object if it wasn’t there? If there’s a mention in the filings, please show us. Some of us actually read this stuff - and section 29 makes no mention. Boring... — read more

They hire anyone now
I knew NM was in trouble when I went to buy a pair of shoes from the Tyson’s corner location and the sales associate never heard of Tod’s (a famous luxury brand of shoes)
it was a wonderful experience in the 90s, early 2000s
I worked for Neiman Marcus from 1992-2007, known as the “golden era“ which stores were booming, terrible to see what’s happening to this once glorious company.
Name one thing you would change?
For me it would be all the micromanaging. I’ve been here long enough and have the knowledge and experience to know what my job functions are, and then some! There is no need to constantly breathe down my neck to see if I’ve completed anything within... — read more

Rubbing salt into the wound
How inconsiderate is it to lay off a bunch of people and in the same breath to turn around and post a whole bunch of new job openings? And not even try to hide it? Just when I think that this company can't stoop any lower, they manage to surprise me... — read more
