Pros
Employee for 5 years. Home Carpet One has always been flexible and very understanding when it comes to family, health, and education. In fact, they encourage continued education and do their best to accommodate a healthy work life/home life balance. Much of the employees are very close professional and personally. My job as merchandiser is fast paced, not much down time, but it is worth it as my coworkers are always very appreciative. A good job does not go unnoticed. I’m not micromanaged and have quite a bit of freedom when it comes to decisions on showroom layouts, branding and marketing ideas, virtually anything that falls under the merchandising umbrella. If you are creative person, you can really thrive here on both the sales side and merchandising side. The two owners are always available and open to input on improvements internally, externally, customer satisfaction, branding/marketing, co-worker cooperation, etc., they always make time, I think that is huge.
Cons
Can get a little overwhelming due to the amount of product this store carries. They have A LOT. Like, if you can’t find what your looking for here, I really don’t know where else you could go! It is a small company so some of the benefits (insurance/401k matching) of a larger company aren’t as great here.
