Pros

diversity is rich in multicultural adversity; good for the military as it is equal to everyone and not discriminatory to a specific ethnicity.

Cons

pay is not what i expected,..especially in this day in age... as much as its the military community i felt that they take advantage of solid work and not repay them equally i mean yeah theres the employee appreciation and perks of shopping there with no tax but you still contribute back to the organization one way or the other,.. in the end you still feel like you've fallen short.

Pros

Buying at the NEX (Tax free items, Scratch Cards. Clearance, Gas) & Base Access (Gym, Commissary, Amenities)

Cons

immediate supervisors were ignorant in how to manage multiple tasks and people despite working over a decade at establishment. Completely ruined working environment for sales associates if they did not like you.
