Thread regarding Macy's Inc. layoffs

Same patterns used over and over for years. Not Fashionable for years now. Quality control gone. This is a dying dinosaur.

"This is a major company with stockholders?" Not for much longer, I'd wager. Macy's is desperately cutting themselves to the bone so they can shop themselves to private equity firms again...that's why it seems like they don't care about the stores themselves, it's going to be someone else's problem soon, just as soon as they can pay off enough debt to convince someone to buy them.

I remember that response when I worked for Macy’s. Polo has a very traditional, preppy look up in their monthly fashion deliveries, but their sport line worked for our customer. Sport would always sell out and the pastel, plaids, etc, would just sit. I always thought about how much more sales we could get if we just carried the right items.

The buyers have been horrible for years with no end in sight. And you still get the standard push back when you suggest local assortment changes.

"Your current Ralph Lauren sales dosen't seem to support your request" You need to be able to support an entire shop.

Because I'm telling you that my customer doesn't buy a traditional RL button down and RL dad Jean's every week. The come in once a week to buy polo sport for the weekend...!!! I do not need more of what I already have and does not sell to get the product I need. Just send me the polo sport / active.

That’s must be wrong with onsite!

Half out sourced in house tech support at Home Depot and destroyed our systems. Then left. Watch out Macy's.
