Stoneside Blinds & Shades

A typical day at work with Stoneside is both structured and fulfilling. From the moment I start my day, I know exactly what’s expected of me. There’s a strong sense of organization and purpose, which makes staying productive and motivated easy. Whether it’s collaborating with team members, completing installs, or assisting clients, no two days are exactly the same—and that variety keeps things interesting.

One of the things I’ve appreciated most is how much I’ve learned. Not only have I gained deep technical skills in window treatments and customer service, but I've also grown in time management, communication, and problem-solving. Stoneside doesn’t just train you—they invest in your long-term growth.

Management is exceptional. They are approachable, responsive, and genuinely committed to our success. They listen to feedback and actively work to create an environment where everyone feels supported and heard. I’ve never felt like just another employee here—I'm part of a team that matters.

The workplace culture is one of integrity, professionalism, and mutual respect. There’s a strong sense of camaraderie and pride in what we do, and that comes from the top down. Everyone holds themselves to a high standard, but there’s also room to celebrate wins and encourage one another.

The hardest part of the job is also what makes it rewarding—meeting the high expectations that come with Stoneside’s standard of excellence. It challenges you to bring your best every day, which has helped me grow personally and professionally.

The most enjoyable part of the job? Hands down, it’s the satisfaction of helping customers transform their spaces. Seeing the impact of our work firsthand—and the joy it brings clients—makes it all worthwhile. That, combined with being part of such a supportive and high-performing team, makes Stoneside a truly special place to work.

I have been with Stoneside for close to a year now ... My timing for applying for Stoneside was right at the beginning of the pandemic so my interviews ( which were several, they like to know who they are hiring) were immediate and then spaced out a bit b/c no one knew what was happening with COVID.  There was a hiring freeze, however ... I stayed in touch with HR and the management at Stoneside.  I knew this was the job for me!  After navigating thru COVID for several months and maintaining my connection & interest, Stoneside offered me a position in the Boston market.  
I could not be more thrilled  - as a designer in the field I have an amazing team who support me from the corporate office in Denver.  These employees are key to the success of Stoneside and play an important day to day role.  We are all on the same team and we need each other to succeed. This is a key component that is emphasized and respected by all team members.  
I feel supported, encouraged and energized everyday - I love the opportunity this job offers me on a daily basis ... I had many years of experience in the home & fashion industry and I was currently working in the medical field.  I needed to get back to my passion which I was not sure was going to happen -  This job has brought me so much satisfaction in knowing that you can love your job and be successful at the same time. 
I am on calls or see emails weekly where as employees we are encouraged to participate in various ways to improve our company - employees are not a number here but rather a valued member of the team.  We interact and engage regularly with management.  
Stoneside is a unique working experience, I love and appreciate every aspect is has to offer and look forward to growing with this amazing company as it expands. 




I truly can not say enough about Stoneside... I transitioned to this company two years ago and can honestly say that it has changed my life. I left a profoundly toxic work environment after many years and really did not know what was next for me personally and professionally. I posted my resume on Indeed - Stoneside "found" me - I went through the interview process which I actually enjoyed and found exciting and I realized quickly through my direct experiences with everyone involved (literally impressed by everyone; from start to finish) that this was not just a 'job' but an amazing opportunity. I felt hopeful and energized and after joining the Stoneside Team my passion for loving what I do (which I did not think I could find again) was renewed - Daily I get to thrive here in an environment in which people are valued and respected, efforts are appreciated, success is celebrated and even failures are met with kindness and proactive solution based support - The real human component to what we do and why we do it is reinforced and honored. We have a core value system that matters and as a result I have the privilege of working with a group of the most wonderfully diverse, talented and dynamic individuals that collectively make up a Team of professionals that I never stop learning from and never stop being inspired by. This company is as unique as each and every person that operates within it - Our success comes from the fact that no matter how we differ individually there is a common ground of shared beliefs that align with the very foundation on which this company was built. I am grateful and proud to be a part of it all...
It is wonderful to love what you do - it is even more rewarding when you love who you do it for - 

Having worked for other companies in the window treatment industry, I can confidently say that Stoneside stands out as my favorite by far. It’s a smaller company where employees are genuinely valued and trusted. One of the things I appreciate most is the accessibility of the leadership team — they’re approachable, responsive, and always willing to take the time to address questions or concerns. If they don’t have an answer right away, they make it a point to follow up, which speaks volumes about their commitment to the team.

What really sets Stoneside apart is how consistently the company lives out its core values: honesty, positivity, generosity, continuous improvement, and passion. These aren’t just words on a wall — they show up in daily interactions, decision-making, and the overall culture.

In my role, no two days are the same. I typically have two client appointments each day throughout the Seattle area, ranging from a single shade to large-scale residential or commercial projects. The job does involve a lot of driving and requires self-motivation and time management, but it's incredibly rewarding. You meet new people every day and get to make a meaningful impact by helping improve both the beauty and functionality of their spaces.

All in all, Stoneside is a company where hard work is appreciated, personal growth is encouraged, and the work itself feels purposeful.





Stoneside is a wonderful company to work for. They have a thorough on-boarding process and provide ongoing training and support. The entire team is here to help us succeed and there is a culture of genuine support and encouragement. The management team is committed to our success and are available to answer questions, coach and mentor us.  They regularly ask for feedback and collaborate with all of us on decisions. Feeling heard and valued as an employee creates a very positive work culture and motivates me to be strong contributor to the team.

As a design consultant, I spend my days meeting with people in their homes. I measure their windows, help them choose the right window treatments, and provide them a quote for the project. I go on two to three appointments each day that range between one to two hours each. A lot of my time is spent driving from place to place. I would much rather be on the road listening to a Podcast than stuck in an office but if you hate traffic, that might be a deterrent. 

This job requires you to be self-motivated and able to manage your time well. There is a lot of autonomy so if you need daily supervision in order to perform well this is not the job for you. There is also some flexibility with your schedule which is great. If I need to move my day off around to accommodate something in my personal life I can do that which is super helpful!

Overall, Stoneside is the best company I have ever worked for. I love being a part of the team and I plan on staying for a long time!

After a year as a Design Consultant at Stoneside, I can confidently say this is the best job I’ve ever had. I’m incredibly grateful to work here and would strongly recommend Stoneside to anyone!

A typical day at Stoneside starts with getting organized following up with prospects, sending proposals, finalizing deals, and reviewing your schedule for the day. Most days include two inhome design consultations, which often require several hours of driving. Each consultation follows a structured process, ending either in a closed deal, a NO or a clear follow-up plan. Afternoons/ Evenings are usually spent responding to messages that came in during the day and planning for the next day.

Management is professional, organized, and supportive without being micromanaging, which is especially important in a commission based remote sales role. The culture is collaborative, with regular team meetings that help keep everyone aligned.

Like any sales position, the biggest challenge is handling rejection and deals that don’t close despite significant effort. There’s also a fair amount of driving involved. That said, one of the best parts of working here is representing a company that truly values quality and craftsmanship. Stoneside is also a company that stands behind its values and mission to deliver a 5-star experience, which is unique and unlike any company I've ever worked for. It makes selling and designing the products much easier when the company consistently delivers on its promises.

As a Design Consultant for Stoneside you work from home with flexible hours and outstanding remote co-workers.  You take a minimum of 10 appointments a week during which you go to a potential client's home and present products and services on a commission based compensation plan.  Management is extremely supportive as training is ongoing and intricate.  The company is growing quickly so if an ever changing environment is not your thing, you may not be happy .  If you love to be part of creating solutions and you have the passion to exceed your own goals- you will love this job.  The company's core vales of Honesty, Passion, Continuous improvement, Positivity, and Generosity are 100% in full effect!  If you don't live these values - You wont fit in very well.  If reading them gets you excited... you'll love the company culture!
The hardest part of the job is driving all day long to get from one appointment to the next and learning to get your work done while you're "on the road" between appointments.  The most enjoyable part of the job is working with terrific people, flexible schedules and tremendous income potential for those who work hard and are driven to close the sale. 

When I was first interviewing for the job at Stoneside it seemed almost too good to be true.  Now that I have been with the company for a bit, I can honestly say this is the best place that I have ever worked.  The company is a very flat organization with access to management at all levels.  The culture has a very familial quality to it and there is tons of support from management and fellow colleagues.  The company does a great job with training and makes a significant investment in making sure that you are set up for success.  The company and the employees within are all real, down-to-earth people who aspire to live the companies values on a daily basis.  If you don't enjoy driving and being available to respond to clients in your off hours then I might suggest this may not be the best fit for you.  There is phenomenal earning potential and the more dedicated you are to serving your clients the more you will be rewarded by making more sales.   Company matches 2% for 401k, gives a significant amount to healthcare and there are lots of bonus opportunities and incentives to strive to be the best.    I would highly recommend working at Stoneside if you are someone with a positive attitude and a strong work ethic.  You will be rewarded handsomely for your efforts! 

Stoneside truly walks the walk. I've never worked for a company that's more honest and upfront than Stoneside. I have faith that people will do what they say they will. Stoneside is the epitome of good sportsmanship with customers, employees, investors, competition, and leadership. I have been with other companies that had amazing core values written on paper. Never have I affiliated with an organization so exhaustive in its effort to live the core values every day.  You will fit right in If you value honesty, positivity, generosity, continuous improvement, and Passion.  Best of all, I never feel the Sunday night blues I used to experience at my old job. As the weekend winds down, I am excited to get in and get to work!   

Typical Day at Work
Lots of e-mails, lots of driving, and lots of visiting with customers in their homes to discover if Stoneside's design solutions could be a fit for them

What I Learned
There are companies out there that still care about their employees and customers. Stoneside is quick to acknowledge when things can be better and wastes no time taking action.

Management
Access to management is easily available at all levels, and for YOU.

Workplace Culture
Tons of positivity in this group. An inspiring group of people who must've all been cheerleaders and life coaches before Stoneside.

Hardest Part of the Job
Working in the car. Driving. Having a car stocked so full of goods it looks like a garage. Having come from larger companies, adjusting to a small company where certain systems are starting in development or non-existent. Larger companies will have already had certain processes automated for years.

The Most Enjoyable Part of the Job
Setting your own schedule and the people.
