Macy’s holiday hiring is on pace with last year, but it’s increasing seasonal positions in a fast-growing area of its business.
The department store giant plans to hire approximately 80,000 workers for positions at its Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s stores, call centers and distribution and fulfillment centers for the 2019 holiday season.
