Where to start? The CEO accidentally orders products that don't sell and sends them in bulk to the stores. Upper management (regional management of Laurel region) makes awful decisions as far as hiring district managers go. The DMs and RMs are friendly with the sales associate's and store manager's faces then turn around to bash them to their colleagues.
The Regional Management for the Laurel Region trains sales associates to lie to customers about the longevity and origin of the furniture. THE BEANBAG COVERS COME IN BOXES THAT READ "MADE IN CHINA-TO AMERICA" YET THE RMs TRAIN EMPLOYEES TO TELL CUSTOMERS THAT THE BEANBAGS ARE MADE IN AMERICA. THIS IS BEYOND DISHONEST- IT IS UNETHICAL AND MISLEADING TO CUSTOMERS. Additionally, associates are trained to inform customers that they beanbags have "a lifespan of 5-7 years, depending on how they are used." However, we had many many customers coming back with flat beanbags after 1 year of use. (And yes they washed and dried the cover plenty, the product quality is just not there with Yogibo's attempt to cut costs.)
Now, for anyone reading this review here is what is going to happen. Someone in the corporate office will comment saying something along the lines of "we are sorry to hear that you weren't a good fit for our company." Take my word for it when I tell you that I was the perfect fit. I demonstrated strong sales across the board, worked my tail off in my store in order to keep things orderly when upper management was little to no help, and was complimented on my performance often by the same people who will try to refute this review.
I think it is also important to note that I am not a disgruntled employee who was fired from their position. I resigned my position because things were going so bad, and getting worse daily.
THE JOB DESCRIPTION FOR AN ASSOCIATE OR MANAGER MIGHT READ "FUN," BUT THE STUPIDITY, LAZINESS, AND INCOMPETENCE OF UPPER MANAGEMENT WILL HAVE YOU RIPPING YOUR HAIR OUT AFTER THE FIRST FEW MONTHS.
