The retailer added the actions did not affect its cash management and vendor payments, and said the employee no longer works at the company. In the three-month period, the company said that comparable sales at the first 50 of its Macy's stores to get additional investment rose 1.9% year over year. That marked the third consecutive quarter of growth at those stores.
