Pros
Helping the sales team develop personally and professionally was the most rewarding part of the job. The customers here are a quirky bunch that definitely make every day fun and interesting. The discount's great too, but you'll never make enough to get much out of it.
Cons
Despite my performance, I made less money with each 'advancement' and some of the people I trained and supervised made more than I did. Sexism is rampant in senior management - females have plenty of opportunity here if their morals are flexible enough. The company's recent 'changes' are a bunch of double-speak used to fight unions popping up in their stores. Employees are still regarded as expendable commodities because there's no shortage of desperate musicians. Senior management takes zero responsibility for their failures and were the most out-of-touch lot I've ever worked with. The company is widely referred to as the 'Walmart of music', but I can say from experience Walmart treats their employees with more respect.
