Pros

Slumberland is very particular on their best practices, and they come from the sales floor. This company wide communication is one of the best I have seen in retail. Their logistics are tried and true. Ex: if it says it is in stock, it is in stock. I have never had something "not be there."

Cons

Not a cohesive sales team. A lot of negativity from other sales associates when it comes to your personal sales. They don't give "5's" on reviews. Their thought is then you wouldn't have anything to work on, and you will always get a "4." My opinion is that; if you don't know what qualifies for a "5," then you will never get 5 performance. Figure out what excellent looks like and push people towards it, without making your request ridiculous.

Pros

Good discount on select furniture

Cons

• Lack of leadership focus: Micromanaged from the top down, inefficiently, at the expense of mid and low-level employees. • High turnover rate: Frequent "corporate restructures". 5 acting VPs of one department in 2.5 years. • Dwindling value of work-life balance: Longer hours, departments stretched thin, and a fully-return to office policy almost certainly employed to push mid and low-level employees hired during and post-pandemic out. • Family run-business: This translates to a lot of wonderful, fuzzy-feeling core values, which look great on paper. But this is a large, growing family, and they want them involved. Some members are wonderful, great fits. But some benefit from ill-advised nepotism.
