Pros

I really like the style of furniture and the whole the company's style in total. When you walk into the gallery, it really does feel luxurious.

Cons

Some challenges working here: even though the company tries hard to inspire by holding morning meetings, incentives and positive feedback. It isn't working out as planned. The morning meetings are more of a call out coworkers faults in front of the whole group! It's quite embarrassing. Store leaders/all leaders constantly give feedback in front of customers, coworkers or anybody. It isn't positive when you are publicly shaming someone! There really aren't any incentives. No bonuses for the bottom of the food chain. The hours is also something that is a huge challenge for this company. Either you are full time or part time. That literally means either you work 65-70+ hours a week OR you have one 5 hour shift! There is no balance at all with this company. It's one extreme to the next. If you are the employee that has the one 5 hour shift a week, you may have to get another job. If you do, the company does not like it and I really think the store leaders sabotage you with your other job. I've had a leader sit me down and make me choose between the two. I said if I got more than one shift it would be an east decision, she promised she would give me more shifts. Months went by... I quit my other job and now I can barely afford the subway to get to work! I am currently looking for another job.

Pros

One of the strongest aspects of this role is the autonomy. I’m trusted to make decisions that genuinely support the customer experience without constant approval from leadership. If I believe an exchange plus a $250 gift card is the right solution to preserve a relationship, I’m empowered to do that. That level of trust creates confidence and allows us to move quickly when issues arise. Leadership is accessible when needed, especially in escalated situations. I’ve never felt left alone to manage something beyond my scope. There is also regular voluntary overtime available, which is a plus for those looking to increase their hours. For someone transitioning from another industry, the environment feels more structured and brand-focused, which has been refreshing

Cons

The clientele can be challenging. Some customers assume that spending thousands of dollars entitles them to treat frontline employees disrespectfully, even when those employees had no involvement in the original issue. It can also be frustrating to hold a boundary with a customer, only to see it reversed after escalation. While I understand the desire to preserve relationships, it can unintentionally undermine employee confidence and consistency in standards. Because RH carries so many collections and product variations, the learning curve is steep. Customers often expect immediate, detailed product knowledge, which takes time to develop.
