Pros

There were some genuinely professional, good people at the Galleries and in CM. Salary appeared to be a bit higher than industry standard...however now I undersatnd why.

Cons

Toxic CULT environment! Be prepared to work all hours of the day or night, and always on weekends!! Management at corporate was laughable, absolutely ZERO management skills! Intimidateing tactics and beyond BAD leadership. Managers would openly berate employees on conference calls and in the middle of open office space in front of co-workers. Zero training or onboarding, be prepared for self-learning on your own time. Everyone seems to be under the strange narcissist spell of Gary Friedman. Seriously, I understand the attraction if you are a fan of the RH style (as I was, and Failed to look at Glassdoor prior to taking the job) But if you want to maintain your health and continue to spend time with your family, RUN AWAY from this Toxic company!

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.
