Great First Job

Pros

Plenty of experience with hardware/software, and knowledge of retail to learn, potential for raises/promtions

Cons

They can get frustrating/high stress due to it being locally owned, there is often more drama than lets say a more corporate business where wages don't come out of pocket etc. which relates to employee count and work load, I would still recommend trying your local store though and seeing how you like it.

Pros

Really great owners great potential if you can see the bigger pictue. It's a franchise so defiently a lot of penitential in having you own speacialy starting as a employee

Cons

Franchise so depending on the store they may or may not offer health insurance. Pay raises aren't for sure

Thanks for your post and I'll pass along the feedback to the independent store owner in San Marcos. To be clear, we're not a franchise....each store is owned independently.
