Good second job or part time job for students

Golf sales associate

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Easy job with multiple perks for not having to work very hard. In down time you can hit balls and test out all of the brand new clubs. Pretty laid back managers that are always around if they are needed.

Cons

Having to do other department's jobs while still expected to handle customers in the golf section. The scheduling system changed to a computer system that would schedule me even when I had marked those days as not available to work.

A good place to gain retail experience. Management is not always the best, but a good part-time job to have.

Pros

Getting to test out all of the newest equipment. Being able to truly help the customer find what they are looking for.

Cons

The managers like to make the sales associates do all of the "dirty work" that the managers should help with. Having to cover other people's shifts on a short notice.
