Company Profile

Employees at John Cootes Furniture appreciated the variety of work and great people they worked with. They also noted the good return customer base, the confidence to run the store as they wanted, and the introduction of incentives for sales team members.

However, there were several potential challenges, including the closure of John Cootes Furniture, concerns about excessive workloads and expectations to do multiple job roles, the company expanding too quickly without proper planning, below-average products not suitable for all store demographics, issues with change management as long-term employees resisted changes, and payroll issues with employees not being paid correctly.
