A joke for employees

Pros

The discount is nice but I didn't get paid enough to use it.

Cons

Notice how almost every review is from people who worked here less than a year? Turnover is insane because you'll never make more than minimum wage. I worked here 3 years while I was in school and I never made more than 25 cents over minimum wage. Someone needs to remind head office where their profits come from. (Hint: It's the workers.)

Great atmosphere

Pros

I can't speak for all stores across Canada, but in general, RW & CO. Is a great place to work. My store has a great family-like vibe and very positive environment. Lots of communication between staff and managers, managers and DSMs, and DSMs and head office. Very good product that is easy to support. Company is growing. Hard work is payed off with more hours, and sooner promotions. No commission, which fosters a team-focused selling environment.

Cons

Pay is low, and it's hard to earn a raise. Other than position promotions, you get an extra $.25/hour added to your wage after each 1000 hours worked. It took me a year and a half to earn my first raise, after working a summer full time. Luckily I had been promoted a higher position that also included a raise, but only $1.50 above minimum. Lack of commission also plays into this, but there is a bonus that is earned when the team reaches monthly sales goals. Not very many hours to go around. I do work at a smaller location, but most part timers get about 10 hours per week. Lots of work to do when there's only a few to do it

Bad Manager

Pros

Only the discounts, if you want to buy

Cons

From the moment you enter you can be tense because of the manager, she doesn't know how to manage people, you can't make mistakes, the manager is super hysterical, don't waste your time there.
