Pros
Working with clients to create a beautiful room is a very fulfilling and fun activity but is very draining. Many of the people you work with are kind hearted but there are many people that are idiots.
Cons
Pay scales are a joke, Prepare to work 9-10 hour days 5-6 days a week. The company hires sales so each store has 1 sales person per $30,000 of estimated business. That means unless you are way ahead of the curve you are planned to make the minimum each check. $1000 paycheck for almost 100 hours of work. If you don't sell more than the minimum, you draw subsidy which you pay back in the future. It is a joke of a payscale for a modern business. In a store with 12 employees only two are making more than the minimum on a regular basis. Also, unless you are completely prepared to suckle at the teet of the company, prepare to have promotions offered and taken away. Drink the Kool-Aid or use this as a temporary job until you can find something real. Assistant Managers are required to sell $35,000 monthly in order to bonus, and if you want to get promoted to Assistant Manager you will need to have a 6 month average of $35,000 in sales along with having all your tests done. Then be prepared to be passed over for someone who is better at the social game than you.
