Thread regarding Macy's Inc. layoffs

Layoffs Then Fireworks?

NBC NY: "New York City is following through on its promise to celebrate Independence Day this year with Macy's iconic fireworks show ..."

I know there's an expectation of massive layoffs this week. But would Macy's really lay off tens of thousands of employees, then immediately fire off a bunch of fireworks in celebration? I know the 'celebration' would be for July 4th, not the layoffs, but what a visual that would be nevertheless.

M and JG are true American patriots. For proof take a look a the vacant credit center in Tempe . The flag is still hanging out from who knows when wrapped around the pole neglected and abandoned.

In Between The Illegal Fireworks Displays, Every Borough Will Get Five Blissful Minutes Of Legal Fireworks For Macy's Fourth Of July Celebration

Whose brilliant idea was this? And why are we spending $$ on 5-6 fireworks shows when people are furloughed?
Lastly, no one wants to see fireworks at this point. We've been seeing them every night

Honestly I believe anything outside of getting stores back up, trying to get employees back to work,helping laid off employees should be the first order for any business. How will a firework show be without people to watch because they are scared to be outside?

Macy’s is a great company but adjusting to the online sales world doesn’t happen over night. From what I’ve seen they are heading into the right direction with the latest 4.5 bln financing. The ceo Jeff G. Is a great ceo and just overall a great guy. I’d be proud to work for him. God bless all of you and I wish the best a luck

The fireworks show was paid for and organized well before covid. It's not like they can get a refund, so what is the company gonna do with a team they hired & paid to put on a show already?
