Pros
You meet some really great people, typically young interior designers who should be working as creatives.
Cons
There are too many. At the top, the owners are completely unprofessional and are lucky they picked a turn key franchise. They do not appreciate the people who make them money and filter off the best paying clients to family. Disrespectful comments and actions toward employees at all levels. Extremely underpaid at all levels compared to NYC market average. Salary is used as a way to make people work gross amounts of hours to even squeak out a very modest living. Management is inept at actually facilitating positive change and just go along with owners bad ideas. The one person they listen to is a relative of the owners, so you can imagine what that is like. Only contribute half towards insurance, which at the pay rate is completely out of reach. There is no room to advance a real retail career with this franchise.
