Pros

It was great with the management at a store level to start. It was new and exciting and everyone worked well together. They do have many opportunities for growth depending on department.

Cons

When sales start to struggle everyone gets negative and it was not a good environment. No one would take responsibility that it was their fault something didn't work out. A lot of the blame game...the culture shifted and a lot of employees didn't feel valued.

Pros

Living Spaces is expanding and growing into a major player in the home furnishings industry with many opportunities to advance a career. The talent level of management and support roles in corporate are some of the best in retail. The organization listens to its employees and really tries to make decisions to improve sales, culture and process. Pay is weekly and we have the opportunity to bonus with yearly merit increases and raises. They give back with catered meals and company-wide events. We also donate to organizations that support veterans and families in need. I truly enjoy working for such a forward thinking company! We work hard but the culture is great so I'm happy to give it my all! If you are looking to make an impact and have great talent, take Living Spaces into consideration. I wish I would have started sooner!

Cons

Being in retail, you have to be adaptable and flexible with new ideas or initiatives. The company sometimes moves so quickly that changes are not always communicated perfectly. Health benefits are expensive and we don't always bonus.

Pros

Maybe Benefits, nobody cares if your giving a free food on Saturday or Sunday! Company profits a lot and instead of giving commission they give hourly and if the goal hits its monthly mission then they will decide among all the employees in order to give you so little chump chain..... their employee discount is the terrible .....before they use to offer 30% off but someone got hired five years ago and decided to change to only 15%......you make hourly but they will treat you like commission......and its RIDICULOUS when they brainwash their employees to great customers and tell them that they work in a "NON COMMISSION ENVIRONMENT" ! This company knows for constantly hiring then firing.....when i was working, i saw at least more than 80 co workers or managements comes and goes........

Cons

Structure sucks, micro managed, a lot of write ups, your health will go down after few months.....no class at all.......no knowledge at all.......
