The pay. Nice store. Product good quality and design.
|
Days are long. Extreme micro management. CEO that sometimes just flies off the handle and goes on a rant at Friday phone meetings. It feels disrespectful. I just couldn’t get on board here. I left after a couple of months.

You said when you hired us we would have our own store to run and manage. That was really not the case. Give more people the benefit of the doubt and really let them have control.

Beware
|
|
Great co-workers, free breakfast, free lunch fridays, pretty generous pay increases.
|
10 days total for PTO/sick days, quality of life goes down the drain, they suck the life out of you and use you until you don't know who you are anymore. Beware.

Take better care of your employees. You've driven away a lot of quality people because you seem to care more about getting rich quick than the happiness of those that work for you.

Don't believe the fake reviews
|
|
At one time, about 1 ½ years ago, this was a wonderful company.
|
They sold out to an investor who has changed the culture and layered incompetent management. The company no longer has a customer care department, it has landed on the design consultant desks. We don't have time to do our actual jobs (as in our contracts!) to design window treatments. The only time to work on projects is at home on our own time. Production and shipping delays due to covid have not been addressed and instead, we still advertise that production is fast. It is not. We are exhausted and stressed without a functioning HR department, our PTO days do not get updated, and taking time off can be a challenge due to workload. We are experiencing stress-related health issues. And there is no support, no one to reach out to. Emails are ignored or responded to a week later. And without warning, our sales goals are increased monthly.

Please don't forget your own history and open your eyes. Management should sit in our chairs on a Sunday to see what work during a global pandemic feels like. Stop telling us that you respect us and trust us when that does not reflect your actions. Your DCs and M&I teams are exhausted. We are getting sick. And don't increase our sales goals when you also layer the extra work on our desks without resources or support. We work from home so we can earn a living, it's the only way to get the quotes done. We work from the showrooms to answer phones from angry customers.

I would encourage you to reach out so we can talk through any and all of your concerns. \n\nI would like to address several falsehoods and misinterpretations below. \nOur culture has in no way been negatively influenced by any investor. In fact, quite the opposite especially this year with all of the Covid-related uncertainty. Their support and advice have helped us successfully navigate this unprecedented time. But rest assured our family continues to be in control on all levels on a daily basis as well as decides upon any and all new leaders. \n\nOur customer care department is collectively the largest it\u2019s ever been and we continue to invest heavily in resources to support our customers with any and all assistance they need. That is the backbone of our company for the last 75 years. We continue to react to customers\u2019 needs and how best to serve them, including huge investments in additional people to ensure our customers are all having a great experience. \n\nOur HR department is fully functional, available 24/7 and has accomplished more positive change this year than ever before. As per company policy - any and all HR escalations go right to ownership. And PTO is updated in our system; if you ever have a question on that you can contact anyone in HR or on the management team.\n\nThe idea that you can\u2019t get in touch with anyone is most alarming as you have direct access to any and all leaders (cell phone, desk phone, email\u2026all published and available). That includes me and all other founders. \n\nNo doubt this has been a challenging year on so many levels and open communication is more important than ever. We appreciate your hard work and focus this past year; department by department, everyone has stepped up. And we are investing even more to hire additional talent and provide additional resources. \n\nThese are actions, not just words. Many companies\u2014including many of our competitors\u2014are not in a position to make the investments in our people and processes that we have made and continue to make. I look forward to an opportunity to speak to you further on this should you so choose and I hope this at least clears things up a bit.", "responseOriginal": null, "countNotHelpful": 0}]
