14 Years managing a Denver Mattress Store, and love coming to work every day!!
Pros
I have been managing a Denver Mattress store for the last 14 years. Like my dad, who worked for one company for over 30 years, I enjoy coming to work every day. Always a challenge. Biggest challenge is finding quality people who actually want to work. I have done retail sales and direct sales of the past 25 years. It is a privilege to be able to work for a company that provides professional sales people all of the tools, training, benefits, advertising, and best products to sell. Our compensation is second to none in this industry. With these kind of benefits, there are of course expectations. To work here you must be willing to work hard. During the interview process, I have always placed the cards face up on the table so to speak. This is a retail store, so retail hours are long, and include weekends and holidays. This is a mattress store, lifting is a requirement. Just consider it excellent work outs. Anybody who has written a negative review probably wasn’t a willing team member to promote success. By the way, we are extremely successful. Anyone willing to work hard, has a can do attitude, is welcome to try out for my team.
Cons
Only negative, is the retail hours sometimes. However, like everybody else in retail, I came into it knowing the hours. Just have to make adjustments with your time off during the week. Usually two and half days off in a row.
