Pros

I work in the showroom, and we have such a great team. We also have great connections with the staff in Head Office in Sydney, along with other showroom employees. We get paid commission for sales, but we share commission equally with whoever you work with that day. Which eliminates the “Vulture Culture” sometimes associated within the sales industry. Great incentives & people

Cons

Sometimes customers take it out on showroom staff when they have issues with their deliveries or service issues. We work very hard from a showroom level. We always try to help resolve the issue, but it can be challenging at times.

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.
