Pros

The employee discount is fantastic and some of my coworkers became good friends. The new GM was a good fit compared to the previous regimes.

Cons

Pay was low, inventory/warehouse is expected to be the lackey for the entire store, other departments including management treated the warehouse/inventory team poorly and disrespectfully. It was a terrible work environment due to the amount of work that is unrealistically expected of us without any help. Multiple employees in multiple different instances including a supervisor were arrested/fired in the store which is unprofessional to employees and clients. Favoritism among management led to irresponsible promotions which further frustrated the entire staff and showed there was no growth within the store or company

Pros

No pros. Just don’t work here.

Cons

This job adds little to no value, either for customers or for career growth. The primary focus is pushing credit cards and memberships that many customers don’t actually need, making the work feel repetitive and unfulfilling. The workplace culture and management are poor, and employees are often assigned busywork instead of meaningful responsibilities. There is almost no opportunity to develop product knowledge or apply any technical or electronics skills. Even the sales experience is limited since the role revolves around following scripted pitches rather than building genuine sales or customer relationship skills. Overall, it’s not a strong entry-level position for someone looking to develop transferable skills. There are many other jobs that provide better learning opportunities, stronger career growth, and more valuable real-world experience.
