Pros

Great with information and training material. Product knowledge.

Cons

They flood the floor with with sales people. They con there new hires about the fake opportunity regarding there 50,000 to 70,000 a year pay (up to 7500 a month is a lie) your paid once a month. You do get a draw. 26-34k a real possibility. Sales staff are so slow to get customers they huddle around the computers and gossip and ask questions to get info on other staff later to change and manipulate what was said to harass to get people off the sales floor or get them fired. They live for high school drama. They have nothing better to do than play on there phone and gossip. If you love to wait 5-8 hrs for an up this is your place to work. The seasoned staff love to demoralize you and scare you about no sales and try to get you to quit with negativity. All sales people can see your sales totals and ups and client information. Other havertys are your competition. As you can help on client only to have a sale taken for you from another store. Beware. Not up front and false hope. If you work their a recommendation is to say nothing to anyone other than hi and strictly only talk to clients. The bickering that happens behind managment is awful. Your paid on delivered not written. Sales staff will know your returns before you will and gossip. Seasoned staff can afford to work there as most are paid ssi benefits and this is there supplemental income. Don’t get sucked in by the miserable and stay happy. Read the other reviews as they are true. I lived it.

Pros

They provided health insurance and 401K contribution

Cons

Very low additional pay for Sales Manager role. COMMISSION only job. Some months I made $14.00, other months I made $8000.00. I was Salesperson on the month many times and still never broke $50K year. LONG HOURS. Many people there work 12 hour days, just to get their sales numbers enough to avoid being fired. Upper management is "Old Boy" mentality.
