Pros

Don't know why some of these people are complaining so much, I honestly loved my job at Home Goods and would go back if I wanted to. I guess maybe it was just my managers but the place was a pretty laid back. I loved being able to make displays and organize my departments the way I wanted to. Me and my managers always had good communication. They always gave me "standards" but I was generally able to set up my departments the way I wanted to (Or the way I had to because there's usually never room available).

Cons

The pay sucks but being a coordinator helped a bit. Some days can drag on and others can fly by, it's always what you want to make of it. As long as you go in there with a good attitude then it will be a good day (unless your coworkers try to complain and bring you down. Trust me, it happens a lot). Also some managers do try to micromanage to much and just wind up conflicting with standards or other managers plans for that section. The worst the about being a coordinator was that departments were always changing and moving around too much. It was pretty much once a month that at least 3 different departments would move across the store in order to attempt to make more room for incoming merchandise. The moves themselves usually took 1-2 weeks so it was pretty pointless.

Pros

Fellow hourly employees were awesome and two managers were great as well.

Cons

Store manager and one of the assistants were not as involved in the store as they should have been, and there was a serious lack of communication between all members of management. Ridiculous corporate expectations based on staffing that was not addressed.
