Discount on items. Faucets are the best item of value at RH.

Cons

-Management restrictions, a poor hiring process -little design creativity, -lack of enthusiasm in the work environment, -core values do not line up with practices - Have not seen any opportunities to help the company grow come from the collaboration. -Managers follow cookie cutter plans on how to run the store -no consistency in pricing or how it is done - customers to buy somewhere else if not satisfied with pricing o - employees discouraged from thinking on their own- restricted opportunities -not empowered to grow within the company -employees are not trained to sell, (features, benefits, the customer's needs, and wants, colors and no background on product knowledge). -Design job for Dummy's- anyone can do it as long as they don't think creatively.

Pros

One of the strongest aspects of this role is the autonomy. I’m trusted to make decisions that genuinely support the customer experience without constant approval from leadership. If I believe an exchange plus a $250 gift card is the right solution to preserve a relationship, I’m empowered to do that. That level of trust creates confidence and allows us to move quickly when issues arise. Leadership is accessible when needed, especially in escalated situations. I’ve never felt left alone to manage something beyond my scope. There is also regular voluntary overtime available, which is a plus for those looking to increase their hours. For someone transitioning from another industry, the environment feels more structured and brand-focused, which has been refreshing

Cons

The clientele can be challenging. Some customers assume that spending thousands of dollars entitles them to treat frontline employees disrespectfully, even when those employees had no involvement in the original issue. It can also be frustrating to hold a boundary with a customer, only to see it reversed after escalation. While I understand the desire to preserve relationships, it can unintentionally undermine employee confidence and consistency in standards. Because RH carries so many collections and product variations, the learning curve is steep. Customers often expect immediate, detailed product knowledge, which takes time to develop.
