Management here is the worst I've ever seen - and I have had some pretty terrible managers. They don't care about the staff, only what you can do to benefit them and make them look good. They are phony; will smile in your face but then talk bad behind your back. It's funny that the two "managers" there will even do the same to each other and then claim to be friends. What a joke! 
Credit is never given, "thank you" is unheard of, "good job" is missing from their vocabulary, and instead of working with you to improve upon what they deem as your "weaknesses" they feed into them by manipulating any aspect of your position they can to make you look bad. They are easily threatened and will not hesitate to simply fire someone regardless of how valuable they are to the company. 
Corporate and HR aren't any better. Taking situations to HR simply elevates the attacks because the "managers" who are either related to one another or have very close ties to the company/family, find out and retaliate. So much for confidentiality and anonymity! The only reason I stayed as long as I did was because I actually enjoyed my job. However, when management is bad, terrible, inappropriate, unfit, etc. it's a lose-lose situation.
The constant tenured employee turn-over will only continue until Corporate actually decides to put the family-ties aside, step in, make a good business decision, and make a change to the management staff. 
That place is a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Manager is very temperamental and unpredictable. One minute he'll be buying lunch for everyone at the store, the next he won't talk or be friendly with anyone. After 6 months of working there I was promised a raise, one year went by and I had never received one regardless of how hard I worked. At one point we were in need of another clerical assistant, I was shocked to find out that the new employee was hired on at $13.50 an hour and I was still working under them for $11.00 an hour. Little to no assistance with heavy lifting in the warehouse, even when clerical wasn't busy I would find myself in situations where I had to load hundreds of pounds of materials into vehicles by my lonesome. I also took on the clerical position when it got busy and gave them as much assistance as I possibly could, the favor was not returned. Manager attempted to write me up for telling a customer that had an issue with a grout called Permacolor Select that she could talk to the company itself and get more information. Come to find out, the manager sold her an abrasive grout for her job and it took off her decorative liners. He then let me go after I refused to sign his write up. I highly do not recommend working for this company.

A typical day at bederosians was being at the receptionist desk, answering phone calls, transfering calls to sales rep, manager, or sending them directly to voicemail. Customers would call wondering if we has material in stock so i was responsible to check stocking and giving them the price per square feet. What i learned as a receptionist at bedrosians, was being a sales rep, because i got to aim for the goal as a sales rep, which would help me get a bit more money on my pay check. The hardest part of my job, was that some co-workers would depend on my work and would not work as hard as i. myself being a hard worker, and a great multi-taks, others would be lazy and not do their part of job , which i really disliked. Other duties i would have on the side would go to the warehouse and clean up, which was a pretty hard duty , which i didnt have a trouble with, but there wasnt alot of team-work.

A typical day at work for Bedrosians Tile and Stone as a customer service representative would include but not be limited to, ensuring quality customer service and customer satisfaction, placing orders, answering and managing a multi line phone system, cashiering, applying cash and bank card refunds, filing and tracking inventory. While working for Bedrosians, I learned to advance my knowledge in product inventory specific to customer needs. My management team was knowledgeable and my co-workers were always supportive and encouraging. The hardest part of my job was resolving order discrepancies. The most enjoyable part of my job was developing and maintaining long standing, professional relationships with patrons.

I just completed One Year working at Bedrosians, My immediate supervisor and store manager made my transition seamless. Not only did I learn the overall operations of the Showroom, but I was given the latitude to learn how to move slabs on my own, become a certified fork lift driver, use the wet saw to cut samples. This was capable through Bedro University, hands on training and my managers willingness to let me spread my wings to learn as much as I can, My efforts have not been ignored and honestly, not that I look for it, but having the managers acknowledge your hard work is nice to hear. Good pay, excellent co-workers makes it a very gratifying work experience. I am excited to continue to support our customers and managers AND excited what the next twelve months will bring....

No that was not the reason again a lie. You did not hire any outside sales rep. I checked. I was never given a reason and I guess selling 19 slabs the week before was not enough! When you never have product or slabs for us to sell, when you sell directly to the consumer and ticked them off your customers who you services for so many years why do you need and outside sales person? All your store fronts took out your product and do not want to sell your tile. How can anybody sell under those conditions besides having the wrong store manager in place. two weeks before we went down south and had a big slab meeting and at that meeting everyone clapped for me because I had record sales so do not try to tell people in was my sales. It was not!

Company is over 75 years old and owners are basically in retirement. They have generic goals in their complex business, but do not demonstrate any real leadership on getting things done. Instead employees are churned through at minimal pay, bonuses, and benefits in hopes to find people pleasers that coast through the years working at this dead end job. Most departments are lead by these characters, so expect a lot of pushback for any changes. This company demonstrates nepotism and favoritism across many departments in spite of actual growth in sales and revenue.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Excellent management with room for advancement & schedule flexibility

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Nothing unusual.  Typical sales headaches you’d have anywhere else.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Positive and upbeat.  Sales reps are willing to help each other out when needed. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Outside Sales Rep: About 4 days per week on the road for appointments I scheduled, with some cold/warm call drop ins.  Roughly a total of 1 day in the office per week.  Varies as needed.  Standard frequent internal sales meetings, etc.  Nothing unusual for a sales position.

A typical day at work would entail answering calls, assisting clients with design selections, designing and drafting. Other responsibilities are helping contractors and taking care of management duties. 

Currently, I work with a small group of people so we are like family. We work as a team and get the job done. 

The hardest part of my job is finding the right balance. Most days, I am pulled in different directions at the same time. When that occurs, I need to handle the most important tasks first. 

I really enjoy working with clients and doing design work. I have a passion for design and love when new materials arrive.

I got hired through a temp agency and have been here for about 4.5 months. I love working here so far. I like the fact that I can work at my own pace and the work is mostly independent. The work environment is awesome. Everyone is really nice and always says hello. The boss always comes to check on me and asks if I am doing okay and if I need any help. I really like that about her. I also like that there is no drama or gossip. The only thing that I would change is the pay. I am still technically working through the temp agency so I don't think they really have a say in my hourly rate.
