Pros

What a bizarre workplace ! Forced family culture thats actually incredibly toxic. If you are someone who chooses to keep your personal life and work life separate then this place isn't for you. If you decline after hour work events you are ostracized and looked down upon, and are pressured to attend. Small company, everybody is oddly close and knows everything about each other. Not my kind of people, did not have anything in common with any of them, I was just there to work. Everybody is fake happy. No bad days allowed ! Felt like a cult, everybody was drinking the Kool Aid. Sales salaries were dependent on being fake nice to each other, I was admin staff so I didn't have to keep up this facade. Funnily enough, I heard all kinds of things being said behind peoples backs the first week I was there. Inexperienced managment (manager) It is apparent that they have had little experience managing, and working for multi faceted companies, specifically in the furniture industry. You can tell they were promoted quickly for being a smooth talker with decent looks and some charm and charisma, but lacks the actual hard skill to successfully Manage. Embarrassing office space. Tiny little room in the basement/backroom, no windows, no fresh air. Actual work was easy, however not challenging. The clientele were affluent. Many were incredibly rude and demanding, did not enjoy the customer service aspect of the role.

Cons

Inexperienced Manager, toxic workplace culture, rude clientele, bizarre co workers
