Pros

Great pay as a MIT (however, this is only for the 1st year) CEO is very humble Company allows you to explore all areas of employment City Furniture is a great place to work at if you are single and ambitious GM is great, very understanding and willing to help his employees with scheduling and training

Cons

Where do I begin?! When I first started working at CF, I had the ambition to work hard to eventually move up within the company. However, this was very difficult for me for one solitary reason, management. I was acknowledged for my hard work, but I was dealing with constant sexual harassment by my mentors. It got to the point that it created problems amongst my marriage. Regardless, of my hard work and determination, I was left with the impression that this individual was well protected, and my complaints would have become dirt brushed under a rug. Another manager had explained that this was not the first time this individual encountered this issue. Because I failed to give in towards his advances, he began to make my time with CF unbearable. Ultimately this led me to leave the company for another position elsewhere which paid a lot less. This descision says a lot about the situation. This was not the only issue I noticed, this individual also did so much unethical things within the company. He would rewrite orders under his number. For example, One young lady was about to be terminated so he took her orders that were not finalized under his name to meet his quotas. Aside from the chaos created in the store, in order to advance within the company you would have to devote your soul in order to see some form of promotion which is good, but as I said this is a place for single individuals. There is a lot of unethical behavior within the workplace, and A different system should be in place to avoid this from happening.

Pros

2020 and maybe 21,22 were good after it all went down hill (thanks to AH )

Cons

Everyone is related , friends , family etc. HR is all friends with eveyone there for you cannot be taken serious . So many talented associates leave because they are forced out due to personal preference. Turn over company wide they say is low. However the location I worked in 80 precent of people were 6 month or under ! Yikes !!! Management does not know how to keep and lead their team , instead they micro manage , make up new rules that they do not follow after a few weeks and they always seem stressed. Oh and bonus program is constantly restructured . They present it as new opportunities however it’s really for them to pay less. This company always pays very low percentage and you have to jump through hoops that are on fire to make a bonus. And I wasn’t some employee who worked 6 months and quit. I was someone making 90k yearly for several years. This is just a reality. Higher management needs traning asap. And insurance gets worse every year !
