No longer a good place to work

Pros

This used to be a good company, with family values and great people, however is has completely gone downhill over the last couple of years. There are no remaining Pros, so I made the decision to leave after a decade.

Cons

The current executive team, including the CEO, has destroyed the culture and ways of working. Micromanaging, big egos, and promoting based on family connection instead of qualifications is destroying this company. City Furniture has not had a profitable year since 2020, resulting in several rounds of layoffs and the remaining team left overworked, underpaid, and miserable. Everyone I know is looking for a new job. Turnover is way up and sadly so many talented and wonderful people have resigned. Executive leaders make excuses and don't listen to feedback from these exiting associates. It just continues to go downhill. If you get a job here, expect to be underpaid with no bonuses, overworked, and told how to do your job by inexperienced leaders. My advice is to look elsewhere. Don't believe what you see on social media - it's not the reality of working at City.

Pros

The people who still work here.

Cons

Low compensation paired with the fear of layoffs mean you will take on extra work with no pay. Work life balance are empty words and the values we recite each morning are parodies of what the company once cared for. No longer. Family spirit? Entire families laid off. Profit sharing? Squandered by goals of growth and poor budgeting. Tenure is rewarded with insulting offers of "reallocation" for entry level pay, in an effort to force out anyone who recognizes the culture shift. You can disregard these cons if you are part of the Family Tree that is the VP layer.

CEO is a fake. The only family that matters is the one with his name and anyone who married into it. Horrible 5 year plan Poor business outlook Expanded too quickly after Covid Too many kiss …… Not transparent as they say CEO spends too money $$ on stupid things Termites in the Fort Meyers location
