Easy job with few benefits

Full time sales associate

Business Outlook

Pros

*Easy job (once you realize the ridiculous numbers they expect you to achieve aren't based on any real data). * steady paycheck if you're full time. *Typical sales oriented job (i.e. pressure people or get "coached", show enthusiasm for the product despite how you feel about it.) *Full timers get benefits *Potential for bonuses (if you can figure out the intentional ambiguity of the bonus structure and if you don't mind them holding up their end of the bargain).

Cons

*Hires too many executives so your growth, pay and even your job is never a priority. *Multi billion dollar family owned business that loves making the family money and loves showing off the family and could care less about yours as long as they make money. *Multi billion dollar business that only pays you because it's the law. *Ambiguous bonus structure so they can give or not give at their discretion and get away with it. *Doesn't always deliver on bonuses (was promised "double" bonus for a two month period and only got the double bonus for one month. *Training is there, but no one is responsible for it except you so how is a new person supposed to know what to do and when. *Training for me was basically setting up a new store and then on opening day instead of being educated on the product being told to "make it up if you don't know the answer" *Its a company that basically knows how to make money but seems to be learning in the fly when it comes to the relatively new outlet business ventures and because of that training, communication and morale all suffer.
