Pros

The pro is that you receive a paycheck

Cons

-leadership : Upper Management has poor communication skills coupled with unrealistic expectations of staff . - high turn over : the store was fully staffed for a total of 30 days in 6 month period -they lie about the position as ALL store associates are expected to deliver and repossess furniture including but not limited to living room sets , washing machines , bedroom sets , etc - stores are not clean ; several break room appliances cannot be used due to bug infestations - District Managers and store managers frequently have conversations about employees in front of other lower level employees who shouldn’t be privy to such conversations . Gossip and rumors can all be stemmed back to this -NO WORK/LIFE BALANCE AT ALL

Pros

The benefits can be decent, there are growth opportunities, and if you’re lucky, you work with a great team.

Cons

Poor management on many levels. From a store level, extending to corporate, the “leadership” needs work on their people skills. People are only capable of handling so much, and the lack of support from upper management makes it harder to work day to day. Additionally, the goalpost is always moving. If you manage to exceed their expectations, completing those same goals will no longer be good enough. The lack of support when it comes to customer abuse is embarrassing. We’re in 2026 and we should want to support the teams that are keeping the company running. Corporate is out of touch with reality. Anyone making over 6 figures a year no longer view customers as people, but as numbers. It doesn’t matter what horrid stories you hear on a daily basis, they are expected to bend to standards that shouldn’t exist anymore.
