Restoration Hardware Employer Reviews

Good work environment.
Has strong team values.
Good management.
Great incentive package.

Unfortunately my experience was not unique. A lot of my former coworkers have had similar experiences. Yearly turnover is the norm.

The job description that I was hired for was an exact match to work I had done previously. The work I was asked to do from the first week with had little or no resemblance to the job description. Half of the department – more... quit within a few weeks of my start, and new people showed up unannounced.

I worked crazy hours, and was held accountable for the actions of others that I had no connection to.

I stuck it out for a year, but it was miserable. – less

Though I enjoyed working there, being in retail with RH can be fickle. They seem to have a few times of the year when they will make some staffing slashes. But given how hard people work there, even when you hear from veteran workers that cut backs happen, it still seems unexpected when several leave at one time.

They treat you like your a dime a dozen. Management is terrible (except for the temp manager in the warehouse) they work you like a slave for poor pay. They dont offer ANY room for advancement or any opportunity for a raise. I knew people that worked here for 3 years that never got a raise from $10 p/h. They expect you to bend over backwards whenever – more... they need. I quit my full time job to work here and i regret it. DO NOT WORK HERE!!! – less

Great place to work and never a dull moment. Great place to work.

Its hard to leave work with a frown on your face no matter whats going on in your life. Management and co-workers actively strive to keep a positive upbeat environment 24/7. The values and the culture can be highly addictive; this job forces you to get better not only in your position but as a person as well EVERYDAY. You are truly challenged to be – more... a better you.

Depending on your job title, years of experience, and financial need RH can be heaven or hell monetary wise. If you have major bills and you aren't hired for a management, design, or a full-time position, this is not the place for you unless you already have another job. – less

It is a call center in which I mainly set up appointments for people to recieve the furniture they ordered.

This a fantastic place to work great managers great team they want you to come to work because you want not because you have to

A typical day at work would include answering calls in a call center environment, and reporting to a manager for review twice a week. They worked very hard to be the best in customer service and spent numerous hours training a new employee to do just that. We were constantly split up so we didn't have our own cubicle and for that reason I would say – more... it was difficult to get to know our co-workers. That was the hardest part of the job. The most enjoyable part of the job is knowing that every single call taken was going to be a new scenario, and I enjoy challenges. – less

The work here in the stock department is full of a lot of heavy lifting. From beds to sofa's to cast iron tables. The product load ranges from 70-100 boxes of furniture on a truck day, to 20 to 40 boxes of small hardware and such on our ODC days. It is stock work, broken down to the absolute basics. From unloading, to checking merchandise in, it's a – more... simple job for hard workers. – less

Competitive pay for entry level job in local area. Fielding customer inquiries from general to escalated customers. It is a customer service job so it is important to have good listening skills, be empathetic, and have tough skin.

The workforce is dominated by contractors; the company lacks any culture; no one reports to managers, but there are 100 or so people that hold "vice president" titles; coworkers aren't generally happy and complain about the company and other divisions; the photographers might be the only happy people (they get catered lunch every day); and the company – more... spends lavishly on vanity while not investing in retail or corporate infrastructure. Executives throw around business school buzzwords and cliché phrases to facilitate inspiration from employees. – less

No opportunity for advancement, no commission, horrible customers, beautiful products.

I've worked for a ton of different retail stores through out my career and Restoration by far has been the most rewarding. They truly are about their people. Which is very easy to SAY but to actually DO. Is what makes Restoration Hardware stand apart from the rest. Would recommend for anyone looking for a career in Retail.

Fast paced
Orderly Inventory
Items being placed into the wrong locations.

My biggest struggle has nothing to do with restoration hardware... I just don't love RETAIL. The only reason I am considering another job is to get into a m-f 9-5.

The company has a wonderful set of values (centered around People, Service, Quality and Innovation), if they line up with your own values you're golden. Management will vary store to store, – more... the Home Office structure is very open and you are ENCOURAGED to put yourself out there and talk to the executives. Although it is a growing corp at times it very much feels like a small start up. – less

Productive & a good company to work for over all.

My main focus was to make sure that all the merchandise would be easy access to the entire team so we can service our CUSTOMERS effortlessly...

i love to work fast and this company kept me on my toes. a very easy job and i loved it.

great place, somedays work on the road, get furniture loaded onto truck. deliver to customers house all over northern california. sometimes in house and prepare furniture to get loaded and fix anything wrong with furnitre. management sucked. had no idea what they were doing. as far as in my department. co-workers were great. all hard workers. hardest – more... part was picking up some of the furniture and taking it up a few flights of stairs and around corners. easiest was driving to the customers houses. also sometimes meet famous people when delivering furniture – less

excellent people. poor upper management. no real room for career advancement. a good place to build clientele as a designer.
