Days become one
Salesperson (Former Employee) - Newcastle NSW - 29 April 2022
Have you seen Groundhog Day?? No support from upper management. Never a weekend off, forget your life you work for Nick Scali now. Some good people at ground level but the positive is far outweighed by the negative.

Fun workplace
Furniture technician (Former Employee) - Direk SA - 18 November 2021
Furniture technician, should have been training, before his send to customers homes no training has been offer on my case. It's a very stressful job,and not safe(dirty lounges, dirty houses),for the wage Nick scali offer. Some tools they offer to fix problems on spot are not appropriate. My reason of resign from the position, Very stressful , not safe (today's covid) Not appropriate tools , not training and the wage.

Diverse and hard working group in Melbourne that care about each others success.
Furniture Service Technician (Former Employee) - Keysborough VIC - 3 October 2021
I enjoyed my opportunity to work at nick scali. I experienced some personal issues during my contract and I did not get my 6 months as planned. I should have communicated better with the bosses and explained my situation which in turn would have given me time off to sort my personal issues and return to work. I have struggled to find and keep work ever since as a result.
Pros
Caring, understanding and family like
Cons
Managed by people from different state of NSW that I never got to meet face to face

Disconnected micromanagers
Drone (Former Employee) - Adelaide Region SA - 18 July 2021
"Set you up for success" is a phrase you'll hear when you first start working for this company. It's a falsehood they'll make you believe until you realise they don't know how to adequately train new recruits. From here, you'll begin to understand that any mistake you make will be recorded so it can be dealt with unfairly at a later date. Don't ask for annual leave, ever. Understand that this is not a normal company and don't apply to work here if you'd like to remain happy. I would rate my experience with zero stars if I could.
Pros
None
Cons
Micromanaging, Disconnected, Mean.

Great Company to work for!
Sales Consultant (Current Employee) - Sydney NSW - 7 April 2021
Nick Scali is a great company to work for and can understand why they are a leader in their field. The showroom is beautiful, the people are friendly and helpful and the career and monetary opportunity is definitely there. With uncapped commissions the potential is yours!

Very pushy
Service Technician (Former Employee) - Qld - 4 June 2020
Over worked and under paid , no advancement for workers as your just a number . Very pushy and expect a lot out if their workers , no promotion if your good at your job because your only good for one position

School yard mentality from management
General merchandising (Former Employee) - Maroochydore QLD - 29 April 2020
If your not consistently writing huge numbers week to week, joining your colleagues in isolating other team members or just laughing at the bosses jokes, you won’t last long!

Worst Place I have ever worked
Showroom Manager (Former Employee) - NSW - 30 March 2020
There is no formal training the team are very competitive and aggressive there is no head office support.
No work life balance as you work every weekend and not allowed to take any days for family events.
You are forced to work public holidays with a promise of time in leau however when you ask for it you will be declined.
This job would suit very lazy people as there is absolutely nothing to do and no growth.

Jobs at Nick Scali Furniture
high pressuer sales, high staff turnover
Full Time Retail Sales Consultant (Former Employee) - Aspley QLD - 16 March 2020
this position did not bring me the joy that I thought it would. I had great expectations when I started at this job and was disappointed consistently. It was deflating.

It was a nice comfortable place to work.
Sales Consultant (Former Employee) - Joondalup WA - 18 April 2019
Upon arriving at work you would walk the showroom to make sure everything was in it place and in presentable condition for sale.
Learnt alot about furniture, construction, how it is made, where a lot of our furniture comes from.
Most of the management team was really nice, friendly and very helpful.
The culture between Joondalup, Osborne Park and Midland was really good. We would communicate on a regular basis in regard to floor stock available.
The hardest part was the compulsory weekend work full days, so you had no social life.
Seeing the look on the customers face when you have helped the select the new furniture for their home.
Pros
Set Salary & commision
Cons
Compulory weekend work with no excusses

Productive good work ethics company
Sales Consultant (Current Employee) - Canberra ACT - 24 March 2019
good workplace culture
good team work culture, team support is excellent , we all work well
together and enjoy sharing information
Management is outstanding best I have worked with
The worst thing about the job is having to work absolutely every
weekend no allowances are made to have a Sunday or a Saturday off. This means you miss out on family weddings etc. Holidays
have to be taken when they say and no more than 2 weeks at a time.
So going overseas is not possible.
Pros
commission is paid on top of wage
Cons
every weekend

A small team who managed great success
Showroom Consultant (Former Employee) - Kotara NSW - 9 August 2018
A typical day is helping people furnish their homes.
Work hard, make budget, be rewarded.
Beautiful products. Lovely people.
I enjoyed immensely how much work I put into every sale. I love fitting out an entire home from theatre rooms, to Living, to Dining.
I stayed up on the latest trends in colourings and furnishings and knew how to put it together. I had a very good customer retention and feedback was always positive. I was not pushy, I gained the customers trust and went as far as downloading for my own benefit every Builders Design of homes so when a customer came in to purchase , I knew the floorpan and layout.
This way I knew colours and styles that would compliment their new home or existing homes.
I miss this the most.
Pros
The Pros are you had an incentive to aim towards, the more you sell the more you were rewarded.
Cons
No Family time, working every weekend. Working every Late night

Opportunities to grow your career
Sales Consultant (Current Employee) - Brisbane QLD - 4 June 2018
I love the Nick Scali furniture range so it makes my job as a sales consultant very enjoyable! Our weekends in the showroom are hectic but the upside is that we can earn great commissions. It's helps a lot that Nick Scali does so much advertising as it brings the customers in, and I feel a sense of pride when I see the ads as the quality and style of our furniture is fantastic!
Pros
Great commisions, great product and a great team to work with.
Cons
Weekdays can be a bit quiet in the showroom

Fast paced sales environment with amazing progression potential
State Sales Manager (Current Employee) - Queensland - 3 June 2018
Understanding the needs of clients and recommending room solutions is the daily run at Nick Scali. If you are willing to put in 110%, there is great potential for personal growth and you have the capacity for solid remuneration. Upper management are supportive and assist in developing a culture that is fast paced and competitive. Every weekend can be a challenge, however this is where the fun is had and earning potential is greatest. The culture and ethos of Nick Scali resonates with me and I have reaped the rewards of my efforts.
Pros
Exceptional personal growth, Great earning potential
Cons
Every weekend at store level

Fantastic work culture- Love it!
Human Resources (Current Employee) - Sydney - 31 May 2018
I've been with Nick Scali Furniture for 6 months now, and i have to say it is one of the best workplaces i've been a part of.
The people in the office are always their to help when needed, and very friendly and open. Hard work is rewarded and you feel appreciated for your contribution to the company.
Within my 6 months here, i was promoted into an amazing position and felt very supported through the transition. I've had a great team to go to for advice and direction if i ever need it.
On a daily basis i need to coordinate with all Regional Managers, as well as Showrooms Managers which requires you to have amazing time management skills. My direct manager has been very supportive, showed faith in me to succeed, and has been very flexible.
Couldn't fault the company, very happy here!
Pros
Career Progression, Support, Beautiful HO, Culture
