StarStarStarStarStarI worked at Nordstrom part-time
Pros
Employee discount, Friendly staff in most departments, the company trains new employees very well!

Unrealistic sales goals, Cosmetics Department Manager was very critical with minimal positive feedback, paranoid about employee theft.

Pros
They are a great company to work for if you are looking for a part time with benefits.
Cons
When sale events happen, you may not be able to take days off since those are the days the store and your team needs the most teamwork. However, your manager may still be able to work around your schedule.

Pros
The company really invests in its employees. There are ample opportunities to experiment with interim projects and develop your skill set in several areas. There is a policy of transparency from supervisors/directors, etc., and there seems to be an open door policy all the way up to the current president - Blake Nordstrom.
Cons
The pay for my current position is lower than I was expecting. However, there are opportunities to grow in the department, both salary- and responsibility-wise.
Advice to Management
Keep up the good work! I really feel like my input is valued here. I like that we are asked to give feedback about process, and that management seems to really listen.
