Pros

Great environment. Lots of hi-tech toys to play with. Great benefits (health, dental, vision and 401K). Store management team was great to work with. Lots of learning and structured training.

Cons

Senior management in HQ changes their mind almost about everything every other day. Communication could have been better. Be ready to explain to your customers why oher retailers often have brand new SONY products in-stock before the SONY STYLE store itself!! This often happens. Lack of planning and everything is always for the last minutes.

Pros

Great people to work with, work used to be good before layoffs were announced. Triangle is a great place to live.

Cons

Company is closing doors in RTP; there is no more work to do; many people have left already; don't apply unless you want to go overseas.
