Pros

- Management cares about employees - You can have flexibility with your schedule - You are trained before starting something new - There is a warm corporate culture - Each store has a social committee to encourage associate friendships - Incentive programs can get you some extra cash - You can advance to a Coordinator position but the positions are limited per store

Cons

- Pay is low as with any other retail job - Training can go fast and then you are left scrambling but you are encouraged to ask if there is anything you don't really understand how to do - Some people don't follow the core values of HomeSense

Pros

10% discount.First to see new items.

Cons

Expecting to put away your department tanks while getting called to help out on the front line, taking care of customers and doing displays and changing shelves at the same time.Never enough staff in your department or other departments. During our huddle time we were belittled about not smiling or going out of way to make the customers happy while the managers and co-ordinaters had no smiles or customer serves themselves. Back stabbing and gossiping staff.
