Pros

Sales associates were friendly for the most part. Benefits were good, company paid for a part of your health care if you to a health test.

Cons

They are not upfront with you about your work schedule. It's not explained you have to work every weekend and every holiday except Thanksgiving & Christmas. Employees have basically no time to spend with there families on weekends. Not ideal job for single parent. There is favoritism and people who kiss up to management are promoted before people that have better numbers. The commission is on 4% which is the lowest out of its competitors. Finally, there are too many sales associates on the sales floor.

Thank you for your feedback. I have forwarded your review to our Sales Regional Managers and VPs. Additionally, our sales turnover team is currently redesigning our entire initial sales training and the new program will launch in February or March of 2016. The next item we will tackle is work/life balance. I'm happy to hear that our health insurance discount was favorable. Our team worked hard to significantly increase the discount in 2015/16. We are committed to making City Furniture a great place to work and appreciate your honest feedback in helping us identify our areas for improvement.

Not much. Great place in general.
