Pros

Let me get back to you when I can think of one...

Cons

The company is a complete mess. It is a "high-growth" company that is all about selling the At Home vision to Wall Street. No one at the Home Office spends time in the stores, they have had major inventory issues for a long time that no one can solve (or even acknowledge they exist) and they preach values with the Home Office enjoying the cushy perks while setting higher & even more unrealistic expectations on the field. The home office continues to pile on more & more workload onto the stores with a complete lack of respect for their low payroll model. How the CEO and the company score on Glassdoor are this high (although terrible) is a mystery. Wall Street is starting to see past leaderships polished talking points, recognized the dysfunction, and has trashed their stock accordingly. At Homes demise won't be caused by the RetailApocalypse, this will be a self-inflicted wound. Move over Sears, Kmart, Payless & Toys R Us and make room for At Home.

Pros

Fine enough coworkers to be around

Cons

Horrendous corporate staff. Overly aggressive marketing for customers that clearly don't seem to actually care to buy anything. 90 day no question return policy means customers buy things constantly and return them even faster. Terrible inbound freight allocation, dozens of the same item are sent on each and every truck that do not sell. Overpriced, ugly, and uncomfortable furniture that sits and fits for months on end. Corporate will tear you a new one for not getting enough customers to sign up for ad bloated emails and text marketing, while also pushing a credit card with terrible benefits from a scummy bank. Will be out of business before the end of the decade.
