Be prepared to work long hours selling toilets

Pros

The training they provide is good, especially for those who don't have any background in plumbing, lighting, or appliances. There is growth potential, as long as the economy is doing well (which, obviously, it isn't).

Cons

Be prepared to work long hours, at least a 50 hour work week. Selling toilets of all things! Why so serious? Be prepared to work some Saturdays. Definitely not a good work/life balance. Plus you deal with the general public, which can be a pain... who wants to do THAT??

Pros

It can be a great opportunity...depending on the person.

Cons

Poorly managed, If you come from better,Ferguson will make you long for the good ol' days. If your a recent college grad, then ferguson is a good place for college kids to learn "hard work" and "customer loyalty" (butt kissing). I came to Ferguson after retiring from the Navy, now I'm Navy Civil Service and I can honestly say ...Ferguson represented the lowest point in my life. Good luck on your job search!
