Pros

Employee discount, good coworkers, relatively simple tasks

Cons

Product Flow (warehouse) employees are expected to do everything the sales associates do while also performing their normal daily tasks. You have to fulfill online orders, unload trucks, and sort product while also finding the time to stop for every single customer. You have to help them on the same level as sales without any of the training or ability to checkout customers and receive recognition for getting them to pay for memberships or apply to the credit card. Not to mention you will often be understaffed in the warehouse so if you fall behind on your tasks you cannot catch up, and you will be blamed if a customer has to wait one extra minute for you to carry their TV to their car (which sales can do but never does).

Pros

The only pros was the Employee Discount

Cons

Did not like the sales role play they would make sales staff do, pushing numbers/stats to achieve, if achieved regular staff would get nothing, management would be rewarded. They would also cross-train you in many departments and expect you to learn everything.
