Not what I expected but it worked

Retail store associate

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

I had a fairly flexible schedule and a variety of work to do. There was always stuff to do but it was not stressful. Work was ok for a part-time job and it worked ok for a while.

Cons

The store was very messy and unclean. Things were run down. It was not my job to be a janitor but I found myself needing to clean when I needed to be stocking or helping customers. The pay was not the best.

Appears to be a up and comming company

Firearms specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Nice people who are easy to get along with. semi- Comfortable working conditions. Must sign in and sign in and again out for lunch with a 20 character password. must punch every time. Employee discount as stated 25% is in reality only 10%. Equipment and tools are old and not up to date.

Cons

They underpay from what can be obtained elsewhere on the free market. I was promised $15 per hour as a firearms specialist but when the check came it was only $13. Minimum wage in Illinois. Employees are often told to work out of their job classification. They work a 7 to 7 1/2 hr day not 8 hours. Only paid for those hours.
