The success and failures of department stores give me mixed feelings. On one hand, department stores are giant corporate boxes full of crap no one needs and symbolize everything I despise. On the other hand, department stores can give off a certain warmth and excitement... there's nothing like passing through one in early December, when the decorations are out, the window displays are a show, and each department is organized in perfect displays of the nicest things.

There are so many purchases that I don't make because I can't afford them. Not just luxury items, but necessities. Amazon undercuts brick and mortar stores, sometimes taking a loss just to do this. And since half of all American workers earn $30,000 a year or less, we shop from Amazon because we need those savings. But the depressed wages in this country are killing big businesses. It's not just because of Amazon. People don't have money to spend. There are so many purchases I would have made at stores in my own town if I only had the money.

We can’t help that the company thinks cutting staff is the way to save money. Every one in my store is overworked, and under payed. I worked for Bon Ton until it closed its doors, and I love working for Macy’s, but so many people won’t shop with us bc of our lack of staff, something that anyone below a corporate level can’t control.

I purchased a few sweaters at Macy's a couple of days ago. The sweaters were put in a small plastic bag no thicker than what you find at the grocery stores, or dollar stores, today.

Those paper bags conveyed the Macy image of class, and quality. Sadly, the Macy executives are now sacrificing those qualities in favor of saving a few pennies per sale by using plastic. Carrying a Macy's bag around the mall, to be seen by other shoppers, besides being a great form of advertising for Macy's, conveys a special message..."I bought it at Macy's."

Which was such a premium department store at its time, and was such Chicago landmark especially during Christmas. I can care less if Macy’s closes.

Most times I'd buy stuff on Amazaon because it can be around $100 cheaper (i.e pull behind trailer for a bicycle.) Sometimes the store doesn't have what I wanted in stock and idiotically has not created a digital inventory system for the employees to search using a computer to see if the item is in stock in the store, unlike Amazon and better brick and mortar stores (i.e. computer peripherals.) Most stores even big franchises have small profit margins like only between 1% to 5% profit. If even just a small percentage of people buy what they want from Amazon instead of what they would've otherwise bought in a brick and mortar store, that can have a significant effect on many stores profit margins

When I was younger I remember the sales associates working in their departments and helping my mom and I find the perfect dress/pair of shoes/etc.. It’s no longer like that; the stores are dead with outdated brands and styles and no one working any of the department desks. It’s sad. I miss the excitement of Macy’s, especially during Christmas.

Main problem with Macy’s is product. Why would I go to Macy’s to buy Levi’s when I can go to anywhere including target to buy Levi’s for less. Lately, Macy’s is just a expensive kohl’s with most of the same products.

TMK Macy’s replaced Marshall Fields in Chicago and I was heartbroken...never cared for the retailer from that point forward.

Jeff: I still love Macy’s. Now even more than ever, not having Boston’s Store or Sears or not the same quality and offerings at JC Penneys’s.... I love having Macy’s and being able to check in person the quality of the clothes before I buy them. I went to one of the Macy’s stores this week and asked whether they had a different size for one cloth item I was interested in. The lady told me there was one left in the store: find it yourself. After I tried to find the item for one hour, I decided to leave with no purchase at all. On Wednesday, I happened to have time to go to another Macy’s store and found out everything was on sale. I did not have a clue that was gong to be the case. I wish I had known in advance. When I asked questions in the store, all I got was “I do not know”. Please train your employees to understand good service and understand what is going on with the merchandise. Strive for good service and a great experience in the store. And please keep Macy’s open. We need Macy’s.

This isn’t about on line sales. This is about sales associates and management who have forgotten that the customer is their primary focus. They have also done away with key departments that were their points of difference. Petites, better dresses, suits, and coats. Classic rainwear. Heaven forbid you should have to be professionally dressed or special occasion dressed, you’re screwed. This all chips away at the prestige of the company. Shopping on line only goes so far, if you’re a perfect size great, but nothin replaces the service in the fitting room. You will never convince me that you can buy a bra online unless you’ve already been fit for it. They don’t size their clearance racks so what the point of looking? I have to paw through the mess? This in itself is a gross margin tragedy. They take out the gourmet department because it’s not making money. It’s on the second floor. Bring to the main floor adjacent to the parking lot. Now their selling mattresses when you can buy them anywhere. Who are these merchants? Train your people and care about the people who pay your salaries. Us. I’m over it.

They are pretty good now. Cheaper than Amazon to order and better quality.

The Macys mens department store closed in my city. The womans Macy store got all of the upgrades including a starbucks, restaurants, and focusing more on the experience.

The culture Macy's worked so hard to create can not adapt as quickly as society does in general. Too big. (and cheap house brands i.e. Inc, charter club and Alfani). Each major city could have their own unique products i.e. Minneapolis Macy's or Beverly Hills Macy's would have demographically accurate unique inventory to enforce the "destination marketing" they so desperately hold on to. They also need a CEO who is under 35. Just facts people.

Macy’s is too damn expensive with wash cloth material clothing!

This made me think about the ARROGANCE of ages ago. Meaning that they NEED to adapt to the times to stay afloat. I'm going to see #CompanyMan

Rude employees, once I asked for a perfume I got as a gift and the employee said directly "we don't carry out cheap perfumes "😂😂😂

Went to the Chicago State Street Macy's a few weeks ago and it was rough. Kind of emblematic of mismanagement at the company, they took a local landmark well loved by the people, Marshall Field's, and replaced its cherished name, while letting the store's service and interior decay...

At least you can try on items at Macy’s. I hate ordering from Amazon more and more I find items don’t fit well. The material seems cheap. If I’m purchasing an item I want it to last not toss it out at the end of the year.

I love Macy's so much please never close All the people in the comments are salty and don't know how to shop they probably went there twice and based their judgment on that only Macy's is honestly great my mom and I have been shopping there since I can remember I can't even imagine buying clothes from Amazon how can I trust the sellers or test my size. Macy's has high quality clothes from so many different places and they are very reliable.

Nice extremely long run on sentence.

Honestly whomever is running #CNBCKZreadchannel needs a massive bonus and raise because they are having great and informative content competitive with KZread favs like vox (before they became dumb) and company man

I think Macy's needs to select better clothes to sell for their younger clients. Whenever I go there, the young women's section is just full of clothes my grandma would want me to wear. Maybe if they sold Show Me Your Mumu instead of Justin Bieber merch, they would have better grip on the new target audience.

I used to work and go to school in that area. Passed by it at least twice a day... 34th Street Herald Square. Sigh 😔

Good video

I don’t mind shopping at Macy’s, but there was this one time where ALL the fitting rooms were closed. I was running all around the floor trying to find a room, and i finally did find one that wasn’t closed, but they only had one room (the other was for handicapped people only and was locked with no one inside). No employee was around either, and if you wanted to pay for your items you had to go on the other side of the store or go up one more floor....never going back to shop there again 🙁

Macy's insists on selling overpriced goods while most Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. People need deals, good deals precisely.

Macy's puts out lots of coupons for 25% off and other discounts. Shop the sales.

Everyone talking about the high price of Macys is thier downfall.. I find that hard to believe when millineums are buying gucci flip flops and kanye west sneakers for thousands of dollars..500 dollar human hair lacefront wigs and fendi socks. Spending hundreds online with FASHION NOVA and ordering Channel bags. Its the fact they (Macys) have not relocated to the ONLINE market from department store. They need to advertise differently too. It's not that young ppl are broke. Its that the dont want to have to go into a big ass dept-store to shop!

What's with the loud trumpets?

As long as there's Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, know that Macy's doing just fine.

Macy’s is one of my favorite places to shop,honestly it’s not that expensive they’re always having sales.

Please do the rise and fall of the U.S. Presidency.

Nice video

Their customer service is absolutely horrible these days. Nobody to help you, nobody at the registers.

MACYS and even MACYS Backstage is very expensive compared to Burlington Coat Factory, Marshalls and other similar stores not to mention Amazon and other online stores. They have to be price competitive to attract more shoppers

The Internet has taken over. Macy's, K-mart, and even Sears are down.

Decrease CEO million dollar yearly checks may help.

Can't Stop Watching CNBC KZread

3:44 I swear I’ve been to that Macy’s in California. Here it just looks older

Gimbels was actually the largest store in NYC at one time. Gimbels New York went out of business in 1987.

I knew when they brought in the backstage section..that kinda feels like Burlington’s..it was all downhill

I stopped going because I realized the quality was quickly declining. It was fast fashion tier goods being sold for 3x the price.

I love Macy’s but it’s losing its luxury feeling they need to focus more on the experience they are giving

Whoa! I just started doing seasonal work at Macy's!

Their problems are messy stores and poor customer service. Nobody wants to dig to pay full price. The reason there are no employees is because of budget. The stores don’t make the money, they have to cut labor budget. It’s a lose-lose

Apartment or department? 4:07

Awesome

Nordstrom actually closed over here a year ago, I wouldn't be surprised if they also closed down Macy's. People rather purchase through online than in-stores. Really the only places that I think will survive are like shoe stores or craft stores where people can feel and try the product before purchasing.

Macy’s is the only place I can get decent work clothes for a decent price, but it’s probably true that fewer and fewer people are buying men’s shirts and ties and sport jackets these days, which is bad for me because I need them for work.

The 32% increase for Macy's is a direct result of the (South Dakota Vs Wayfair) case and eventual Supreme Court ruling on June 21, 2018. Amazon must collect sales tax on all sales, so Amazon is on a more level playing field with Brick & Mortar retailers like Macy's. Amazon saw the writing on the wall in 2017 concerning Sales Tax so they self-imposed this policy company-wide Feb 2017.

i still like macys
