Pros

Very nice Sales Staff. They will be the main ones who will try to keep your sanity intact.

Cons

My mind is still blown that the sycophantic and manipulative actions of the power-drunk in the office, could so easily bend the minds of others. It truly comes down to the less-involved supervisors being strung along by the ulterior motives of their 2nd in command. The Boss and Human Resource are painfully out of touch with their hourly staff and show no real effort in creating a healthy worker-boss relationship. This typically would not be a major problem if not for the incredibly small size of the overall staff. The moral of HC1 will more than likely stay dismal until the administrative (upstairs) staff is made accountable for their bullied tactics; the hourly staff will forever be ignored until their downsized. The toxic malice and complete disregard for those who make up the sales and hourly staff is enough courage for anyone to meet the end of their rope. And so, within 1 year, there has been a minimum of 10 employees that have either quit or were fired. A particularly disconcerting number when you take into account that there are only some 20 odd in-house employees. Most employees of the store work greuling 50+ hour a week shifts with very little revision of schedules or room for rest. Please be warned, Home Carpet One will demand all the good from you only to ride you to exhaustion and ultimately leave you with nothing to show for your efforts. Leave your respect, dignity and voice at the door because it will not be validated.

Pros

A few people in the office were friendly and helpful.

Cons

Emotionally abusive owners!! Whoever wrote that this place was a great place to work...please step aside so the people telling the truth can take up this space because you are sadly mistaken. The owner and his wife are terrible people. They expect someone to come in and fix their failures and if that does not get done, they fire you. Don't believe me? Find out what their turnover rate is then thank me later ha! Employees are over worked and under paid. Health insurance is a rip off! I was a full time employee and still could not afford health insurance. The greed clearly shown by the owners is REAL! God will take care of them if the government does not first. They literally took my good spirit out of me with their constant yelling and belittling. No one should be afraid to speak to managers and ask questions. These people were awful. They could have clearly had a lawsuit filed against them by employees but who has the time to waste on these poor miserable souls. A couple of employees are also very rude and feel entitled. So sad especially when most of them don't even have the life experience and educational background of others. It shows a lot of people over compensate for how stupid they are....(clear my throat.....as well as the managers). If you get hired or they come off as nice people....do yourself a HUGE favor....RUN RUN RUN RUN! Do not let them take up one day of your precious life. It is not worth it. If times are hard and you are looking for work...KEEP LOOKING. This place will drain you. It is depressing and just awful to work here. I heard when the owners dad was alive...he was amazing and absolutely wonderful. Wish I met him because the poop I walked into proved that the business should have been laid to rest in a happy memorable memory with the wonderful previous owner. Sorry not sorry.
