Pluspunten

It's a job that barely pays the bills.

Minpunten

I worked at the home office for six very long years. This was the most toxic work environment I have ever worked in. First off the executives demand that they be treated as royalty and the lower management make sure you do. Lets talk about the staff discount. The discount is cost +10%. The executives reserve the right to exclude products from staff discount and do often. Especially at holiday time. There was no help with retirement. You can have pay diverted to a 401K, but there is absolutely no employer participation. Although after you pay for your medical insurance and meet the huge deductable there is very little left for investing. As a salaried employee you are expected to work at least a 10 hour day and the continue to work through the evening and on the weekends. The average expectation from the executive staff is 60 to 70 hours a week consistently.

Pluspunten

Customer obsessed culture with a strong emphasis on expertise and service. Leadership is highly engaged, with consistent focus on coaching, accountability, and development through structured one-on-ones and daily execution rhythms. Clear expectations across sales, service, and operations create alignment on what success looks like. The organization provides exposure across multiple business functions, allowing leaders to build well rounded operational and commercial skill sets. High performance environment that rewards ownership, initiative, and results.

Minpunten

As a smaller, specialized retailer, organizational growth and upward mobility may take longer compared to larger big-box companies. Resources and infrastructure are still evolving in certain areas, which can require leaders to be more hands-on. High expectations and pace can create pressure during peak periods, requiring strong prioritization and resilience. Some systems and processes have a learning curve, particularly for leaders coming from larger, more standardized organizations.
