Pros

Everyone is gone a lot traveling so sometimes you get a nice break from all of the background noise

Cons

No benefits except for health insurance- no sick days, vacation, or bereavement is granted before working at least a year. Pay is very low according to market standards. You are expected to work a lot of overtime and be ready to travel internationally for weeks at a time at a moments notice. Work days on trips can be extremely long and tiring, but you only get paid .5 hours of overtime each day you are on a work trip. Expect flights at 4 am and having to report back to work the next day after a two week long trip to India, China, etc...even if you are sick, you will never hear the end of it if you try to take a day off to recover. Everyone talks badly about other departments as if they aren't just a few doors down. The work environment is extremely toxic -everyone is always blaming someone in another department for problems. Meetings are rarely held to remedy these issues; but no problems are ever solved because everyone wants to do things their own way. There is also absolutely no real HR department--it is non-existent. There are people with titles that claim to be HR but they cannot do anything if you go to them with a complaint. I have tried and was just redirected to the head of my department, who abuses his power and lack of HR to say whatever he wants (which would get him immediately fired anywhere else).

Pros

This is a dynamic and fast-paced environment to work in. If you're ready to take on challenges and focus on personal growth, you’ll find plenty of opportunities here. The team is fantastic and plays a significant role in supporting your development. The owners and upper management genuinely care about your well-being—both financially and mentally—offering perks such as a coffee bar, manicures, and massages to enhance your experience. In addition to the numerous benefits, there's also the chance for team building within the community, which offers plenty of valuable opportunities. You'll also have the enriching experience of working with customers from around the globe. Pursuing opportunities in this field requires a significant commitment. My personal and professional growth has been driven by my dedication to learning about the industry and adapting to its constant changes to remain competitive. Additionally, it’s encouraging to see that the company actively supports and empowers women to thrive in their careers.

Cons

The home furnishing industry is constantly evolving and is subject to a variety of changes. It operates as a luxury sector rather than a necessity, making it more of a desire than a requirement. This fluctuation means that at times we thrive, while at other moments we face challenges. However, these ups and downs provide a chance to think creatively and innovate, allowing us to stay relevant in an industry that experiences it all. The company strives to actively listen to employees’ suggestions. While some ideas are excellent and put into practice, others may not make the cut. Like any organization, there will be growing pains along with ups and downs throughout the journey.
