Ashley Furniture Reviews

Cons

Requirements on days off Bonuses are promised but rarely achieved, the goals are set too high but the salary is good none the less

Cons

Archaic work environment alongside shady managers/directors. Truly cannot trust anybody. Must work in office 5 days a week but if you are special, you get special privilege and can come and go as you please, so there is no consistency. A miserable corporate life working alongside fellow miserable people if you choose to be employed here. Companies like this could choose to do better but instead turn a blind eye. They value the traditional bootlicker mentality over people who are sincerely just trying to do their job and go home.

Cons

The Trivett Group (Franchise owner of multiple locations throughout VA) promotes extremely toxic management practices within its upper management. Double standards makes leading your team feel impossible. Owner/Leaders do not protect their employees from assault and harassment. You will likely be relocated to a different store multiple times with very little notice (less than a week, sometimes the night before) regardless of your wishes or needs. The owner of the franchise group, Michael Trivett, preaches ignorant and unsubstantiated ideas and opinions about mental health, wellness, success, and productivity. Upper management is not open to feedback or willing to make any changes to better the company culture.

Cons

Don't have any complaints - requires dedication and commitment to career path in order to be successful, as does any sales position.

Cons

You work under pressure all the time

Cons

Pros outweigh the cons any day!

Cons

Everything about working there besides the discount is a con, I was told at my interview that I would be working 20 hours a week 5 days a week after my first three months I was suddenly working every single day with zero days off. Management was abusive and constantly belittled me for being autistic despite being one of the best reps at the location. When I finally stood up for myself the Manager threatened to end my career in retail if I ever talked to him like that again corporate did nothing about it after submitting a formal complaint so I quit without notice and blocked all the known numbers from Ashley Home Store

Cons

Long Hours Both Manufacturing and DC too close Hot environment

Cons

Worked there 5 years without incident no write ups no disciplinary infraction at all. Then in April 2022 a reach truck collided with my cherry picker. We were both drug tested. He admitted fault. He passed I failed (marijuana) I was terminated as I should have been. Was told I could return in one year. Only to find out lifetime ban. Exact words of hr “lifetime ban”. Also work life balance no good.

Cons

Management can’t be trusted. They say whatever you need to hear to accept the job and expect you to stay when they don’t keep their word. Promise to put you on productions lines with pay incentives once you are trained and efficient, become just as fast and efficient as th Whig on the line behind you making $16 more an hour than you only to be told repeatedly you’ll get on a line like that soon only to finally be told your training line with base pay is where you’ll stay cus it needs to be turned into a real line. All the while you are doing $36 an hour work but getting paid a fraction cus the rest of your line is constantly being replaced by new hires who quit after day 1
