Pros

Working in the Austin, TX branch. RH invests into training their employees. Office culture is pretty good. They’re pretty good at reimbursing you for expenses. Located right in The Domain area (central to Austin, but given that Austin is now ranked #4 in the nation for worst traffic, could be a long drive for anyone living too far North or South).

Cons

As much as RH invests into training, they don’t train on successful methodologies. They don’t sell on relationships or building trust, but rather pushing candidates into clients emails/voicemails or even if you’re in-person. RH is one of the largest users of Salesforce, so their customized Salesforce has a million ways to do one thing. There’s no training on how to utilize Salesforce the most effective way possible, or even a strategy that everyone agrees on. Very high turnover and always making their employees worry about job security. Even if you’re on track to meet your goals and achieving weekly all time new highs, if it’s not to their unrealistically high standards...you’re out. This being said, management clearly has favorites. While at RH, I’ve seen numerous people laid off for not meeting expectations, however, there could be another employee doing A LOT worse who has also been there longer, but they’re still in the seat? Extreme micromanagement when it comes to production.

Pros

Hybrid, Good benefits/PTO, offered “competitions” for gift cards, cares about employees

Cons

As a recruiting manager, I felt that the pay structure was interesting with the base pay being a “draw” - meaning that you base salary is essentially commission paid to you in advance. So if you have some slow months, it rolls over and works yourself into a hole. I think it would be a better structure if it reset every month.
