You work very long hours.. and also on weekends. Plenty of room to go far in the company. Not a bad job at all .. must meet numbers and goals daily. Must hit goals!!!!

High demand for little to no reward

Credit Manager (Current Employee) - Morganton, NC - July 6, 2022

Very demanding, district and regional management demand more even when goals are meet. Consistently promising bonuses and extra incentives for events, then incentives are put on hold for several months after completing event. Do Not Work for this company if you have hobbies or a family!!!

Pros

Nothing.

Cons

Poor pay, no room for time off

Stressful environment, no work/personal life balance

General Manager (Former Employee) - Hot Springs, AR - June 20, 2022

I worked here for 3 years, as both Sales Manager and General Manager. As a Sales Manager, I exceeded all goals set, however I was asked to do more to compensate for the other stores in the state who werent meeting goal. This was to boost the Area Managers numbers, but it applied more pressure and stress to me. Why didnt he ask those stores to step up, instead of make me sell for them? As General Manager, there was no direction or training, just more stress and a good luck. I was expected to work Monday - Saturday from 8am to 7pm. Only day off was Sunday (because the company is closed) but I was still asked to come in on certain Sundays. When I had Covid in Feb, I was forced to come in after testing positive. I was told to keep my distance and wesr a mask. Doing so got my Sales Manager sick. They do not care about their employees and it is very apparent.

No Work Life Balance

Credit Manager (Former Employee) - Little Rock, AR - January 24, 2022

I took a position on at this company on a promise of a promotion. The rug was pulled out from under me and was passed over for a less experienced person. When the district manager was confronted about this he just dodged the question. The manager routinely wouldn't unexpectedly make everyone work past their scheduled time and even expected everyone to work on their day off. The pay is not fair it is way too low for the amount of stress each person is put under. I have talked with people in varying positions from vice president all the way down and very few of them are professional. I would not recommend this job to my worst enemy.

Pros

Paid weekly

Cons

Stress, long days, short breaks, low pay, micro managed

One of the worst places I have worked.

Sales Manager (Former Employee) - North Carolina - September 28, 2021

By far one of the worst places I have worked. Your title is misleading, as a sales manager you are not really managing anything. Constantly making cold calls that lead to nowhere. Nothing about this company is worth your time. The pay is okay but you are always there late so if you’re salary you’re just wasting your time and working for free.

Pros

None

Cons

Everything

Delivery Truck Driver (Current Employee) - Memphis, TN - September 5, 2021

A typical day here. You start at 10am you are constantly worked and sent places without the proper paperwork then going in circles all day because . the people are not home for delivery. Management are scared of upper management so you are always under a scope. This place is extremely understaffed you are the only deliver driver because everyone quits.

Pros

long lunch, weekly pay

Cons

little pay, little hours, no benefits

Good place to get sales experience

Sales Manager/CSR (Former Employee) - New Albany, IN - October 18, 2020

The titles are misleading. Even though you get hired as a sales manager or credit manager you are not really managing anyone. You will be making tons of cold calls, follow ups on online inquiries, door to door marketing ECT. When the credit person is off you will be making collections calls. You will also be helping with deliveries, calming angry customers, and calling potential clients. Be prepared to work past 7 most nights. The company is based in Texas and they try to make things fun and inclusive but some stores just do way better than others. You will also be cleaning and repairing damaged furniture.

The bad stands out the most!

Driver (Current Employee) - Conway, AR - October 2, 2020

The district manager has an ego problem and often power trips. The store is mediocre but has a decent staff besides that the pay isn't that great. They've had more people leave the company than average.
