Havertys reviews

You work every holiday and every weekend. You work on commission with a base which I was told is the same for everyone until I quit and then my manager offered me a bigger base pay to stay. Sometimes it's really slow. You can really only make a lot of money if you're okay with bending the rules and have your coworkers hate you for stealing their sales, and if you're a designer it's like pulling teeth getting the sales team to use your expertise as they would prefer to dump customers they don't want to work with on you, they'd rather not leave the store to go on house calls (I don't even blame them), or they'd rather have the customers do their own work and leave the store to measure their own house, this way the salesperson can work with another customer (again, they work on commission so I don't blame them).

You will work 7 days per week on commissions to make less than a person at a convenience store. Commission are only paid once per month and often time the merchandise is out for 4 to 6 weeks so you don't get paid for 2 or 3 months on sales. When starting they said a sales person can expect 6 ups (customer a day) all of us who are working 6 and 7 days per week average 2 customer per day. You will go broke working here. They withhold your first check for 6 weeks. And in some cases if you sell something at the end of the month, you'll get paid your commissions 3 months later on that sale. Management makes sales staff pay for customers bottles of water when they ask for water. If they give a customer any discount it is deducted out of your commissions. I came to this company with 20 years of sales experience and I now make in one month what I was easily making in 2 weeks at other places. When you leave this company, they will not pay your last check till 6 weeks after or even longer. We have had upset former employees who's complained about this regular I now know of 2 long term sales people who've downsized their homes and 3 employees that have lost their car because they couldn't afford the payments.
