Macy's Hires Amid Broad Retail Hiring Push

Macy's reported a notable wave of hiring in September, adding 606 jobs across its stores, distribution centers, and corporate teams. The figure was offset by 654 removals, signaling a net staffing adjustment as the retailer manages seasonal demand and broader workforce strategy.

The postings span a wide array of roles, from CRM and merchandise execution to asset protection, warehouse work, and seasonal retail positions in markets including Herald Square and other major shopping centers. The breadth of openings highlights Macy's continued investment in customer experience, brand partnerships, and omnichannel service.

Industry observers say the net decrease suggests a balancing act between permanent hires and seasonal staffing while Macy's positions itself for the holiday period and longer-term growth in operations and management.
