Pros

I worked alone so if I stayed attentive to the store's needs and the customers, I could do what I wanted. They give commissions on certain products. If your good at selling you can make a lot.

Cons

Crazy dysfunction in the management. They seemed to have this theme of wanting to have young fit men to manage their stores. I am not a young fit male so despite the fact that I could walk circles around the management in store care, customer care and up selling, they never offered me a store. Often, I would be called or texted by management or another employee during my off work time to assist with an issue. Also received texts in the middle of the night! (and I was a part time employee!) During my employment, two of the managers I worked under were fired along with the area manager.

Pros

Generous discount, flexible hours, laidback

Cons

Colleagues will often fall to their lack of thorough training and lack of pay. Career progression is also a dead end when you hit store manager unless you want to give 5-10 years of your life to the company for hardly any pay.
