About Steinhafels

Steinhafels, an employee-owned furniture and mattress retailer run by the founding family out of Waukesha, Wisconsin since 1934, does almost all of its selling on the showroom floor. Its sales consultants, full-time or part-time, take a shopper from the first question through the choice of sofa, bedroom set or mattress, the financing paperwork and the delivery booking, then follow up by phone or thank-you note, and they work the nights and weekends when furniture shoppers come in. Each summer the stores take on students as sales and leadership interns who sell the same floor on the same commission plan, with rotations through marketing, e-commerce, merchandising, HR and accounting and visits to competitors' stores. Above the consultants sit sales supervisors, who are trained as consultants, cross-trained in billing, warehouse distribution and customer service, open and close the store and still carry a personal sales minimum, and sales managers who hire, coach, discipline and stage the store's sale events. Apart from the stores, commercial sales account managers in the Commercial Interiors team prospect and close business accounts (schools, hotels, government offices, companies and nonprofits) across a field territory and stay the customer's single contact through delivery, fed in part by referrals from store staff. Openings are at stores or territories in Wisconsin or northern Illinois.

SalesJobs.Now is free for job seekers. Some links here pay us: a job ad network pays for a click on one of its sponsored jobs, a recruiting firm pays a referral fee when someone who came from here is hired, and a career tool pays a commission when you buy it. That costs you nothing and never lowers what you are paid. Roles whose links pay us can be placed higher in a list. "Featured roles" are openings an employer picked during a free trial with us; no employer can pay for that spot.

Pay at Steinhafels

Stated by the company, checked 2026-10-30
Stated per posting

From our research: stated by the company, checked 30 Oct 2026

Read from its postings on 30 Oct 2026: Store sales consultants and summer interns are paid full commission with no cap and no base wage; the only fixed money is an hourly training bonus paid on top of commission for the first four pay periods, and the consultant job title advertises a yearly earnings potential instead of a salary range, with quarterly and annual bonuses on top. The commercial sales account manager is the one seat with a salary, set by experience and paired with commission, and the posting names no figure; the sales supervisor and sales manager postings give no pay at all. Before taking a floor seat, ask the commission rate on furniture versus mattresses and protection plans, whether it is earned when the sale is written or when it is delivered, how cancellations and returns are charged back, how walk-in customers are shared among consultants, what a slow week pays once the training bonus ends, and what a consultant in that store earned in a full first year. The roles listed below state what Steinhafels posts now.
