Pros

*Customer relations- building lasting relationships with customers *Ability to build a team that works as hard for you as you do for them *Never a monotonous day- always a new challenge *The harder you work the more money you make! *So many proud moments, from landing big accounts to making huge sales, from helping a customer understand what they need, to get what they're looking for in their project to getting thank you letters after the dust settles. *being a hometown hero to our local schools and community by giving back in the form of donations- they are our tomorrow lets give them what they need to succeed today! *feeling accomplished everyday *learning something new everyday *unmatched training *84 lumber has taken care me since day one and has given me and my family the ability to be financially independent

Cons

I consider my store my business and with that responsibility I put in 60-70 hours a week. The benefits far outweigh the negatives 84 doesn't match my 401k dollar for dollar like my last company
