"Management needs to work on being more professional. Listen to your sales associates, and take advantage of associates' skills. Stop with the favoritism of sales associates, learn to communicate effectively with your associates, and help more on the sales floor with the team, instead of sitting in the office talking about nothing and eating snacks!"

"Sign up at your own risk."

What do you like about working at Conn's?

"Great pay through holidays only.Pretty good discount."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Everyone gets hired."

What don't you like about working at Conn's?

"New employees come in just about every other week, so if you cant hack it expect to be replaced. You must meet your quota, in a low volume store, this is impossible. Online credit apps are hush hush which is 60% of buisness, they dont let you in the system, probably the worst thing since sales are your job security. If customer signs their signature weird or if they forget, they make you drive to their house to get it, if you dont they dock your pay. If you work at a low volume store like I did, expect to barely make quota during the holidays, if its not the holidays forget about it, find another job."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Give access to online applications to all employees, or store level managers. STOP HIRING EMPLOYEES ON A WEEKLY BASIS. The 'up' system needs to be revamped. Stop the sales meetings 20 miles away, the videos are enough. Instead of having your SENIOR management come check out the stores have them ask employees their opinions on things."
