Pros
Sales become a great resume builder. Clients with massive projects and budgets are constantly coming in and calling in. New product to work with all the time. You can become really well versed with Salesforce and CRM systems.
Cons
Clients will bully you - leadership doesn't care. Leadership is always stressed. The gallery leader is the worst leader I have ever worked with. This is the only office I have worked at where the leadership or managers office isn't glass or the door isn't always open. Pressure to make sales goals is overwhelming. Terrible scheduling - they are open on Easter and many other holidays. Product is always backordered or unavailable - this is not an accident - home office consistently launches product before it's ready. The restaurant and gallery attracts 15 y/o instagram girls who run around taking pictures and provocative characters who have no idea where they are and are looking for the "club" and are embarrassing to work around while you are with a high value client. You will start every day with a values meeting. This is the Kool Aid meeting. They preach fancy quotes from our CEO and try to create a positive and organic conversation about how great RH is. Do not fall for it. This is a PUBLIC company. And the stock price has been increasing. As a result the company is pushing to publish more fancy international ventures as fast as they can. This is where the real money comes from and why all of the gallery employees are treated as fungible and paid so little.
