Good money for part time work but there are real pitfalls.
Pros
If you're a merchandising rep, you have some control over your schedule. Assignments come down and you usually have a week to do them. Hourly rate isn't bad. Most of the managers dealt with over nearly 10 years were great but there are some that are not so. The control over my schedule and working mostly weekends for assisted sales allowed me to be the primary caregiver for my elderly mother.
Cons
Travel reimbursement stinks, be prepared to put a decent amount of your money back in the tank. Instructions for assembly of displays can be a nightmare. Some projects are really really complicated. Need to supply your own tools and the list keeps growing. Rep. Support Line is pretty much a joke. Be prepared to be on your own and deal as you can. If you're working assisted sales, you need to really like Walmart! Regular revolving door as far as management is concerned, here today, gone tomorrow and it might be a week before you know who to contact. Oh and we all took a 10% pay cut 01/14 so we could be "more competitive". Still didn't see any work for months! My last assisted sales manager is/was/has been a total rock! He's became a good friend as well as a great boss!
