Pros

The people are generally nice, and it's great to work if you like technology, computers, and anything with a chip or a bit. I feel like a kid working at Toys R' Us. There are opportunities for advancement, either into management or sales, I've seen people go both ways. They are closed for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and have limited hours on some other holidays.

Cons

It's retail, so it has the same pitfalls. During the Summer, because of less customer traffic and college students opening hours, hours become competitive, where they are plentiful between November and April.
