Amart Furniture Employee Reviews for Retail Sales Associate

While the people were great to work with. The constant need to put your own time into learning the product wasn't beneficial. Management were good for the most part but some lacked skills to do their job. The hours were up and down which was not what I was told at the interview. The constant battling for sales was also an issue.

Pros

Discount.

Cons

fluctuating hours.

RETAIL ASSISTANT (Former Employee) - Hoppers Crossing VIC - 9 March 2020

I enjoyed my time at amart, I left due to having my second child and once I got further along in my pregnancy my boss at the time was not to compassionate about my leave or me anymore so I didn't return.

Pros

It is not a good time to work for this company .

Casual retail sales (Former Employee) - Warana - 7 February 2019

Poor management at all levels , especially the area manager who loves the sound of his own voice . He is well known for completely changing operating rules at a moments notice and believes that he can sell anything in fact he will even tell you that when you start working for Amart, I certainly would not buy anything from him and almost everyone who works for Amart including other store managers think that he is a joke. This company has a culture of micro management of the professional sales staff . They love to blame poor sales performance on their employees even when their sales are well above the average in comparison stores . It is not a good time to work for this company .

Pros

Close to the Beach .

Cons

This company has a culture of micro management

be prepared for boredom

Store Manager/Assistant Manager (Current Employee) - Perth WA - 18 November 2018

Management roles require very little skill and become boring quite quickly. Very limited progression opportunities. Sales team are pleasant and easy to manage.

Pros

reasonable salary, office hours, discounts

Cons

not challenging, very poor IT systems, monotonous daily activity, poor company culture despite vision/values statements.

Sales

Casual Retail Sales (Current Employee) - Queensland - 22 January 2018

Love the people I work with – all levels yet Amart suffers from the norm that occurs with all large business. Its ‘ALL’ about the $$$ and ‘NOT’ the people.1. Top heavy with management2. The preaching of our company standards yet that’s all smoke and mirrors3. Full of bureaucracy4. People – staff treated as if we were within a heard – child care centre

Pros

A Team environment

Cons

Management processes and Approach - People are second NOT first

horrible

Casual Sales Team Member (Former Employee) - Osborne Park. - 24 August 2017

Too much pressure to sell. You are not allowed to be yourself. Very pushy and competitive sales people. Management speak badly to staff. Furniture is very average.

Wants causal workers and not full-time

Office Retail Casual (Current Employee) - Oxley QLD - 1 March 2017

If they stop cutting casual hours and give more hours or create more full-time positions. I would be happy if they give me more hours or make me full time
