Pros

Great place to work. Commision based so you are on your own.

Cons

I hate the fact that when you sell a customer on a complete solution and items state they are in stock. And when you look for this particular item you realize it is missing. Very Frustrating.

Pros

I hated the job when I worked in sales, and I quit bc I was miserable...I had a difficult time finding another job, and the GM offered me a position in the warehouse. I enjoy the work much more and I like that the pay is consistent in that position. I got a new job somewhere else but bc I like the gm so much I continue to work in the warehouse.

Cons

As a sales associate it sucked making a base pay of $4/hr with commission. I worked 12hr days 3hrs/day not even facing customers, it was extremely depressing and the sales manager would yell at me.
