      Pros

      Working at City Furniture as a software engineer has been an incredibly rewarding experience. The company is committed to using modern technology, which has allowed me to stay at the cutting edge of the industry and continuously develop my skills. The tech stack is current and robust, making each project both challenging and exciting. One of the standout pros of working here is the exceptional work-life balance. City Furniture truly understands the importance of maintaining a healthy balance between professional and personal life. Flexible hours and a supportive work environment have made it easy to manage both work commitments and personal time. Additionally, the company culture is very collaborative and supportive. Colleagues are always willing to help and share knowledge, which fosters a great learning environment. Management is approachable and values employee input, which makes you feel like a valued part of the team.

      Cons

      However, there are some significant drawbacks. There hasn’t been a solid leadership plan for the tech department, which has led to enormous amounts of layoffs and disgruntled employees. This instability has created an uncertain environment that can be quite challenging to navigate. Additionally, the necessity of time tracking every ticket that a software engineer works on feels excessive and can be counterproductive. While the technology and work-life balance are top-notch, the lack of strategic direction and leadership in the tech department has negatively impacted overall morale and job security.

      Pros

      2020 and maybe 21,22 were good after it all went down hill (thanks to AH )

      Cons

      Everyone is related , friends , family etc. HR is all friends with eveyone there for you cannot be taken serious . So many talented associates leave because they are forced out due to personal preference. Turn over company wide they say is low. However the location I worked in 80 precent of people were 6 month or under ! Yikes !!! Management does not know how to keep and lead their team , instead they micro manage , make up new rules that they do not follow after a few weeks and they always seem stressed. Oh and bonus program is constantly restructured . They present it as new opportunities however it’s really for them to pay less. This company always pays very low percentage and you have to jump through hoops that are on fire to make a bonus. And I wasn’t some employee who worked 6 months and quit. I was someone making 90k yearly for several years. This is just a reality. Higher management needs traning asap. And insurance gets worse every year !
