Pros
you get to travel, some people get lucky with good leaders
Cons
Out of all of my trainee class (I think there was about 30) 50% had quit within the first 6 months. after 2 years, probably 10% are still working there. Those are pretty bad retention rates, and it all stems from false promises, especially for people wanting to take the buyer route. They hold you prisoner at the stores I had a few people do that to me, even though they mention throughout the interview process that it will only take 3-6 months to get to the center. My regional Denae did that to me and was pretty ruthless saying I wouldnt get anywhere with my skills... Well look at me now! I'm a buyer at a company 50x bigger than Von Maur
