Pros

Product discounts are great. Food in the kitchen.

Cons

The place has changed dramatically in the last 6 months. The office environment used to be fun, we had lunches and food trucks and the managers seemed to really care. But we haven't had anything lately. The place just feels miserable, like no one cares anymore. We were all overworked and stressed. They have had a lot of executives leave the business too which only made things worse for the rest of us. I don't know what was going on but the vibe of the whole place has changed.

Pros

I have truly enjoyed my time at King Living so far. The company genuinely cares about its employees, offering competitive wages and benefits. I also love the furniture I sell—it brings something fresh and innovative to the Chicago market. I get excited to showcase our products to clients and always enjoy seeing their reactions. Our team of design consultants has been carefully selected to embody the best qualities of King. With a diverse range of skills, we create a strong team that offers expertise across various aspects of design and functionality.

Cons

The main challenge is that, since our home office is based in Australia, communication can sometimes be difficult from the U.S.

Pros

you days off are set, no rotating schedule.

Cons

Annual raises are capped at 3%. They track hours from an excel sheet, so time accuracy is poor. Lack of clear expectations and structured feedback. Poor management practices, with a lack of guidance and support from leadership. Excessive overtime with unclear prioritization and workload expectations.
