Pros

The pace is fast and everyone is busy all the time, which is a great thing. Working in a Neiman-Marcus store can give you both the knowledge of fashion, style, design and commerce, as well as the business world in general. There are good people to learn from, you just have to seek them out. Finally, this is hands-down the most diverse and interesting group of fellow employees I've ever worked with. I take a lot of pride in being part of a company that makes this a priority.

Cons

The company tells a "teamwork" story to it's employees, but this is really not accurate. This job is not for wallflowers. Getting trained in my department was negligible at best. Be prepared to hustle (not necessarily a bad thing), while avoiding the sales sharks. In sales, you are a lone wolf in a forest of hungry wolves. Be prepared for it, and don't get emotional.

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,
