Pros

Good pay compared to other companies in an assistant manager role

Cons

As an assistant manager at HomeGoods you are basically a high paid associate that carries keys. As with most retailers payroll drives what you do and how the store operates on a daily basis. If payroll is tight you will have to pickup the slack. That can even mean getting in the trailer and unloading. Sometimes you will be the highest paid cashier in the store for hours on end. There is never enough payroll to schedule your employees to complete the tasks that need done. You can not keep up merchandising standards because they keep sending you freight that you really don’t need and not enough of the products that you do need. Merchandising standards always suffer because of the constant “get it out of the back” direction from corporate.

Cons

HomeGoods is a very stressful place to work management is lazy sit in the office the majority of the time don't help out enough on the floor stores are always Junkie coordinators work very hard to try and get things done but can't because they're always ringing because there's not enough cashiers women are mainly doing all the bulk of the work during Carrie Ann's and carry outs of heavy furniture and rugs getting down heavy rugs majority of the men that work at the store work in the back processing the truck but no men on the floor to help out with the heavy heavier stuff Never Enough payroll for staff especially cashiers coordinators have to have open availability and always expected to change their schedule after it's been made so they can be there all the time working can't get any overtime but expected to be there all the time day and night management and corporate people don't have enough respect for their staff or their coordinators give more respect to the coordinators ability and knowledge other things how to run things around the storeand share some of the profits that the company makes with the staff especially the coordinators at least offer us a gift card or something during the Christmas season like a $50 or $100 gift card to show your thankfulness
