Pros

Easy Job, learn something new everyday, OT, company match, profit share, if you’re willing to stick around long enough you can make a lot of money, most co workers are great and willing to teach

Cons

Long hours, understaffed, horrible pay, have to move to be promoted, constantly do other people’s jobs that get paid twice as much as you, little to no vacation, do not get fairly compensated for sales numbers, POS system is awful, can’t have a beard, false promises, college degree means nothing, no heat or ac, and you are forced to work saturdays
