      Pros

      Lots training, potential to have good managers, hourly rate for sales was higher then other similar job positions. Managers have lots of responsiblity (though many dont use well) If you get a good manager it can make for a very good experiance

      Cons

      Glass ceiling for sales floor employees, lack of recongition for sales effort. For advancement to manager, its kind of luck of the drawn. Manager expect long/late hours during holidays. Can really be a drag on the personal life

      Pros

      Flexible hours, employee perks such as discounted products, offers 401(k) despite being part-time, coworkers who are nice to work with.

      Cons

      Management is quick to call-out sales that have nothing attached to it (warranties, card applications, memberships, or accessories). There is a rodent problem that has not been addressed for nearly a year; food and beverages cannot be sold at this store.
