Pros

In 20 years, I’ve worked for many amazing brands but by far, Riggs has the best culture I’ve ever experienced. It’s a team of smart, talented, dedicated and caring people. They lead by heart, always. “No one cares about how much you know until they know how much you care” is practiced everyday by everyone. The leadership team really values employees and the perks (lunch stipend, 12 paid holidays, generous vacation policy, welcome gifts, anniversary gifts, team celebrations, etc) are incredible. Plus being in the luxury kitchen appliance industry, you’re surrounded by food which is pretty fun! It’s no wonder that they have a pretty low turnover. I’m so lucky to work here!

Cons

The demand for the products is seeking double-digit growth year over year so there’s lots to do! The company is always evolving to ensure that it keeps up with demand and has all the tools and resources to grow. I like the dynamic, entrepreneurial spirit at Riggs where I can build programs from the ground up, contribute new ideas and make an immediate impact. But if you like highly structured environments where you just work in a little box and you need a lot of direction, this may not be a place for you.

Pros

the food was good and the safeway gift cards were good

Cons

Working for a family is always hard. One gets pulled into the drama of family. They say they treat everyone like family but that's not the flex they think it is. The CEO's management style was learned from his dad, the former CEO. Imagine the only way your boss knows how to manage or lead is by parenting, parenting like The Great Santini in the worst possible way. Because of the CEO, I will never ever buy anything produced by Subzero/Wolf, which is a shame because they are great products.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We know prospective employees read these reviews to understand our company culture, so we’d like to offer some additional context. As a family-owned and operated business, our interactions can feel more personal—and sometimes more direct—than in large corporate environments. Like many families, there can be moments of disagreement or tension, but our aim is always to improve, listen, and grow together. We also recognize that during times of change or transition, experiences can vary widely. While not everyone will find our approach to management or culture the right fit, many appreciate the strong sense of accountability, work-life balance, and close-knit environment we work hard to maintain. We’re proud to represent premium brands known for exceptional quality, and we expect the same commitment to excellence in how we serve customers and support our team. We encourage anyone interested to speak with us directly to learn more about our values and opportunities.
