The retail apocalypse is having it's impact on Macy's too, we just aren't doing press releases like the other companies. Lucky for us that so few people want to work at Macy's anymore since we ask so much of our employees, we were told we could take jobs at nearby stores if we wanted them, though most people want whatever severance we will get and to call it a day.
Exactly what @YgNCzkm-1vet said. Similar thing happened to my former store - closed but we were given a chance to transfer. I did, but I'm starting to wish I didn't considering that the situation is just as bad as it was there. Hindsight is 20/20, I guess.
