Pros

-Employee Discount -Somewhat decent comission - Helping people and seeing their lives change was the only part that kept me working for this piece of crap corp.

Cons

- You are pushed to sell P3's, Multis, Vitapaks, Amped Vitapaks, OMS, and you always compete with other stores - Barely get customers and RSD is very impatient and pushy....how do I sell stuff if no one comes in???? - You lie to customers that GNC is the best- when it isn't. - You never get what you need in a shipment... for example: you get stuff that no one buys..but the stuff that sells out fast you are always out of and have to do DC delivery - customers get very verry mad! - GNC is greedy.... they want you to get good numbers but have NO COMISSION on GNC products, only on third party products, and you get in trouble when you sell them which is b.s. why do we have it in the store if you dont want me selling them????? - You always have to block & face!!!!! - You have to do manager's job of counting money but you don't get paid any extra! - Sales tags are always always messed up! Customers always complain - GNC is way way overpriced - They don't care about customers- only about making money - You always worry about losing your job if your numbers suck - Very stressful Hated working here. Employees have to know so so much and do so much work for lame pay.

Pros

The job provides excellent exposure to a structured sales plan for someone new to sales. The store gets plenty of foot traffic to create opportunities for customer engagement. The varriety of products to sell on is great as well. Pro Access is a great value for customers building a pre and post work out regiment or building a supplement routine.

Cons

You run the show. While there you are responsable for running the store.
