A nice place to work
Designer/Manager (Former Employee), South Elgin, IL – May 14, 2013
Pros: design challenges
Cons: many hours and always working weekends.
I loved the daily challenge of meeting guests, and the design aspect. The only reason I left is because they required 50 hour work week and I needed to focus on school in my last quarter.

Productive fast pace workplace
seat upholster (Current Employee), Neosho, MO – March 17, 2013
a typical day is ten hours of standing on an assembly line working with team members to produce a product as fast as possible. i learned how to work with a team and leadership skills. management was always pushing to make the team produce faster . the hardest part of the job was a style of couch called a 521 no matter how hard teams tried it was always – more... hard to hit quota. the most enjoyablepart of my job was when we exceeded quota knowing we was going home with extra money in our pockets. – less

Good Work Place
Key Manager (Current Employee), Fredericksburg, VA – November 29, 2012
La-Z-Boy is a good place to work if you are looking for a part time job. I on the other hand am looking for a career that La-Z-Boy was not willing to offer me

A/P Management was awful
Accounts Payable (Former Employee), Monroe, MI – October 19, 2012
Pros: co-workers were great
Cons: a/p management was awful
A/P Manager spent the entire day talking with her friends there and then complained that she had to stay late to get her work done. She is useless in that position as she relies on her two supervisors to do the bulk of the work. A/P is a small department and does not need 3 supervisory/managerial positions. My co-workers were great but one of them spent – more... about 2 hours each morning going from cubicle to cubicle telling the same stories about her family. We'd hear her coming and act like we were on the phone...we didn't care to hear about her family in the first place. The A/P manager & supervisors knew that she wasted time each morning doing this but none of them had the backbone to say anything. – less

I didn't get treated well there b/c i'm not from this town
Production Upholstery (Former Employee), Dayton, TN – September 12, 2012
Pros: they had a caffeteria
Cons: people that had little authority stretched it to the max and made it very stressful.
A normal day at work there was okay! I enjoyed the pace of the job. I just live in a small town and people that isn't from around this area they act different towards. The job its self though I loved it! Co-workers were great until they put a new trainer over my team cell and he brought our production rate down by $3 dollars an hour.

Friendly environment to work in
Furniture Sales Consultant (Former Employee), Merrimack, NH – September 6, 2012
Pros: running and managing a furniture store
Cons: low volume of traffic, low pay scale
Working for this company was rather interesting where I was allways felling as if I was going to work for a paycheck or if I was just going in to enjoy selling furniture. Everyday I would come in to open the store by myself, work the whole day from 9am-6pm with nobody ther to assist me. In a way I did not mind doing this because it was giving me a sense – more... of control over the store which made me comftorble, however, the location that I was at had very limited traffic where I would some days not even see one person. So I started doing some cold calling which did help in some ways, I feel as if I may have increased their sales by atleast 40% by doing what I was doing. This company had a very low pay scale for a base salary and a low commision rate. I felt That with prior expierience with other companies that I would be able to do somthing here, however that was just not the case and I was also living to far away at the time. – less

Good for a first time job
Assembly Operator-Metal Room (Former Employee), Dayton, TN – July 12, 2012
Pros: nice breakroom, great human resource dept., good insurance benefits
Cons: bad management attitude
This was the first manufacturing job I had. They had a good work atmosphere but felt like management wanted their employees to fear them. I don't like working in an environment where I feel nervous about approaching my supervisor or afraid to ask questions from higher ranking employees.

Productive place to work
Customer Service Coordinator (Former Employee), Greensboro, NC – July 9, 2012
Pros: they had an exercise room for employees
Cons: taking irate calls
Entering orders and setting up new accounts. I learned how to deal with consumer complaints. Management was supportive. Co-workers were pleasant. Hardest part of the job was listening to an irate consumer and trying to calm them down. Most enjoyable part of the job was helping people get the work done in a timely manner.
