      Pros

      If you are a musician there are plenty of perks, and the company culture is casual. You have an opportunity to really apply yourself and learn skills that you can use anywhere. It's (usually) rewarding to help customers with their gear purchases and with the company's growth there are always new positions to shoot for.

      Cons

      Unless you have a good job in management, the pay is low for salespersons and with all the extra tasks you have to do, this can detract from selling which is where you would (hopefully) make your commission.

      Pros

      Sweet deals and discounts Coworkers are very pleasant to work with Good as extra income Good for aspiring musicians to network with experts of the industry

      Cons

      Obsolete softwares Scheduling system software that is thenmost imperative tool as of it will be the backbone of a lesson lead for your team of instructors success it's also somewhat obsolete amd constantly crashing both IT and Upper management are aware. IT is very diligent and pleasant to work with but Upper management expects their lessons lead to work and deliver at 100% capacity while they continue to have an operating system that only works at 75% capacity, just beware of that and if you're willing to work under those conditions. With that put there go at your own discretion. Nobody gets Christmas/winter holiday vacation time off, also go at your own discretion on that one especially if you have kids and family looking for work-life-balance.
