Only good for money
CREDIT COUNSELOR (Former Employee), Beaumont, TX – May 14, 2013
Cons: conn's. just look at the name.
This work environment was like herding cattle. Disrespecting other people to get money but in order to do that, it increased yourself chances of more money. No values of treating people like equals. Management was poor and had favorites. Could not balance or accept workers that wanted to better themselves by going to school and working.

Horrible Job
warehouse night shift employee (Former Employee), Houston, TX – February 9, 2013
Pros: way to make a paycheck
Cons: stressful
This company sucks, starting with the VP. There is people to this day that have been working for about 6 yrs in the Houston warehouse who haven't received a promised raise. The nightshift (who makes them all the money) is always taking the blame for everything that happens. They have so many meetings about sexual harassment but the managers are the – more... harassers. A typical day would've been come in at 4, wait for a daily meeting, get told that there isn't enough work to be staying past 8 hrs, or 14 hrs was too long we have to speed it up. Then find product that its never in the right location, notify customers who have been waiting all day for there product that we don't have the product, listen to them curse you out. Day shift is lazy doesn't do any work, everyday I went to work I seen the day manager pulling product while his employees stood around and watched. The person who I can say really did work and deserves a manager position was TERRY who works in the back. Everyone is always looking for a way to get out of there, they don't care about your pay. One time they were buying a company lunch, they forgot they had to feed nightshift. Thats what type of company this is.
Hope this helps. – less

Luckie – January 29, 2013

I actually enjoyed working for Conns.. I THOUGHT I had a good working report with the company.. I had worked there almost 4 years in collections.. Due to the fact that I was over 40, and they were attempting to reduce their work staff along with budget, I was walked out with NO work related issue..Its amazing the caliber of individuals that they hire and the quality of collections is less than professional. Its rather comical to listen to a collector attempt to collect an account while using two or three double negatives in one sentence along with inappropriate collection ethics.

Difficult, degrading and a bunch of ignorant corporate leaders and liars.
Was a manager (Current Employee), Dallas Texas – October 21, 2012
Pros: descent benefits
Cons: its all bad
Typical day at work would be some new We Know It to sign, a good manager getting demoted or a couple more new asociattes that need training. Some new policy or procedure that contradicts the last one. Some new threat if you dont sell 70k a month you have to go to performance training but yet your looking at 2 more new faces to train to go with the other – more... 15 people standing around in these hot stupid looking goofy shirts we have to wear. Flooded Floors i tell you. So what did I learn today at work well lets see our customer service still sucks just like our delivery that damaged some poor customers fridge they delivered and told them they would be back out tommorrow with a new one. Yeah right. Go to your new manager who is a graduated M.I.T and he asks where the demoted manager is (who got demoted to sales) NICE! what to do. The only good thing about today is some of the co-workers who are a lot of good people who hate Conns also. The hardest part of the job is actually clocking in and staying there all day and not leave. Management is abused and used and discarded usually without any warning and its done over the phone by the D.M who is really an overpaid putz. DONT GO HERE YOU WILL LIVE TO REGRET IT. – less

Shrugz – October 31, 2012

You are so right, you are telling the truth. Insane Asylum is what I called this sickening environment. Only way anyone should work or "SLAVE" for this idiotic company is when a person is grossly desperate for a job.I encourage anyone to find something way better than this.

Mmaria – November 22, 2012

Conn's need to change their management style. They are very intimidating, unbearable. Concentration camp tactics

Training new hires how to make a living.
Houston Market Trainer (Former Employee), Houston, TX – October 7, 2012
Pros: motivating others. seeing your trainees succeed.
Cons: underappreciation for work you put in. management would change policies at the drop of a hat.
Training and motivating others was one of the most enjoyable positions I had working with Conn's. I relayed policies of upper level management to new hires and other employees.

soon2bxconn – October 21, 2012

As an employee working for Conns is a rollercoaster ride with daily changes, threats, poor procedures, policies, poor management, and they will demote you at the drop of a dime and strip you of your salary, dignity and pride if you are a manager and promote an even more unqualified so called M.I.T. manager in training in your place. They also have the worst customer sat and delivery and I dont recommend Conns to anyone.

Conn's Yea that is exactly what they are a bunch of Conn's
Driver Installer (Former Employee), Lafayette LA – June 1, 2012
Cons: yea conn's is correctly named
I use to work for these people. I delivered and installed all the stuff they sold. I have a really good understanding of how they do things in the store and on the road. Let me tell you, they are NOT the company to work for. They are a slave to the grind company. They tell you one thing and make you do another. They promise things and never make it – more... right. What they dont tell you about the driving position is you are required to wash the truck. We are talking about a huge truck. Then , they have no GPS so you have to guess or look up addresses in map books they provide and all these books have torn missing pages. You will get lost and this consumes lots of time. If someone isnt there to deliver a product you dont get paid. If you deliver a product and they suddenly dont want it, you dont get paid. If they wan an exchange of an item that is defective or has a small dent, you dont get paid for double trips. its ludicris. You get paid on what you deliver. So if you deliver a washer, you get maybe $10 to install it, remove the old one and we are talking serious time and manual labor. They take your off days. You basically work 6 days a week. 12 hours and more a day. You have to put together anything that you deliver which includes furniture, desks, stereos, TV stands and dont get paid for this time. The person you will be riding with in this truck will think he has " done his time" and will require you to be his Biztc. he will make you drive while he sleeps. Make you do all the work while he talks to the customers. And all this cause you so called " need the experience" Trust me.. DONT APPLY. Lafayette LA – less
