Pros

Working in a beautiful environment with colleagues that are professional and offer the best customer service. Neiman's has continuously managed the downturn in the economy for creative ways to drive customers back into our stores. Also, Neiman Marcus carries many very exclusive lines that are only available in select Neiman's and Bergdorf's.

Cons

Straight commission has the highest earning potential in retail; however, it can be very tough when you are hit with 'customer returns' and the day-to-day business is down. There are many vacation 'black-out' dates and you must work nights and weekends. If you are not achieving your monthly goal, you are put on probation, and then terminated if you do not achieve your seasonal goal...even if you have worked there for more than ten years.

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

good pay, good retired tech/fashion prop sales, hour long lunches

Cons

terrible work environment with whole bunch of eating disorder talk and projection at models (even from some management), management makes everyone stay until 4:30 even when all the minimum work requirement (and oftentimes more) is done, they will write you up for something extremely small then dismiss a big thing from another employee, terrible communication between managers therefore terrible communication to employees, employees get publicly ridiculed when they're just asking questions even amidst the terrible communication issues that are already there,
