Pros

Decent discount on decent furniture, they will compensate you well for how insane the culture is.

Cons

Incredibly bizarre and very toxic work environment- upper management is hyper-focused on individuals who exactly fit a mold. I was told by one of the higher up's assistant to "play their game" or I would not succeed after seeing employees bullied into quitting. We would spend two hours a week discussing every fault of the three other employees and then proceed to micromanage everyone to oblivion. Other members of the leadership team were gossipy and used the guise of feedback to express interpersonal tensions. There is no standard practice and policy is ever changing. We were expected to give a 60 day notice for a request off, often receiving our schedules just a few days before the month began. The company is incredibly disorganized and inefficient, RH uses flashy "updates" to mask its failures. I witnessed blatant bullying, and discriminatory hiring practices. The "gallery" I worked in was incredibly understaffed and they would pass up qualified candidates because our Field Leader had an incredibly niche nit-picky reason for disliking them. I was told to ask one of the people I managed to wear makeup, and then was told a boasting story about how another Gallery Leader kept a handful of beauty products to offer to his female employees if he felt they did not look "elevated". Not only that, the company that owns jets, yachts, a boutique hotel (ECT) would not pay to have the exterior of a commercial building painted and expected the employees to paint the building on ladders too high to be safe. There were several instances where we were expected to do work (not trained, not safely) that should have been done by professionals. When we pushed back and expressed concerns with quality and safety it was seen as being "complacent" or defiant. Overall incredibly pretentious, laughable, inefficient, crass company. Great for a pay bump, however it will come at the sacrifice of your sanity and personal time.

Disappointing

Pros

Wonderful, talented coworkers who do not get enough credit

Cons

Constant ridicule, favorites, no room for growth, empty promises. Do not be fooled by the “interior design firm” approach. This is strictly a retail environment who treats their employees like cattle. You WILL be replaced if there is any reason to not like you, regardless of your performance. Leaders like to promise you will move up, and encourage lateral movement within the company, but as soon as you talk to them about this topic, they look for reasons to let you go. Forget about any time off, and you work every major holiday except Christmas Day and thanksgiving day. It is almost impossible to request time off prior to holidays. This company is not a family friendly company, with little family leave and zero tolerance for flexibility regarding children. For example, I was fired without any warning or time to improve because my 5 month old daughter was heard fussing in the background of two calls. I “violated” the work from home agreement due to lack of affordable childcare in my area and the fact that I am breastfeeding her. Leaders will seem to be on your side regarding your family, but are certainly not. This is a company from Hell, I would never recommend to anyone for employment. Save your time and energy. Unless you like to be part of cults, this is a place for you.

Pros

Either sink or swim, great people to work with, team is like a family and not in the cult way some may say. Leaders have associates best interest in mind. There is work life balance in this company and a focus on enjoying design and sales, if you don’t like either, you won’t do well.

Cons

If you don’t take feedback well, you will not succeed
