Mark
Store Manager
"During the interview for this position, I was asked what I loved most about the company. I said it was the fact that a 21-year-old could start out as temporary help and ten years later be sitting in the CEO's office interviewing for a store manager position. That's called opportunity and this company has plenty of it." |

"There are a lot of other companies that participate in community service but none that are as dedicated to it as Macy's South. You can see this in how the company supports and encourages its employees to get involved. I've seen entire divisions take a day out of the office to work in a soup kitchen or help out at a Special Olympics event." |
