Pros

Cool job; you get to meet cool people, get a discount on alcohol, fine foods, cigars, etc. It's a laid back retail environment.

Cons

They tell you you're being considered for moving up but the training never happens. You really have to stay on top of management to remember that they were interested in promoting you.

Pros

Fun job, great staff, fun product.

Cons

The job doesn't pay nearly enough. If it paid a living wage, I'd have been content there for far too long.
