Pros

Stable company, great benefits, cool product

Cons

Those that succeed are those that are willing to lie cheat and steal. If you are honest and ethical, you will not reach the unattainable sales goals. Literally was told flat out to lie to sell exactly what we were supposed to. Quote from manager "Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.....or a sale"

Pros

Good compensation for top sales performers, good benefits, overtime available for those who want it(unless you are in mgmnt)

Cons

Zero work life balance, although they preach that it is a "core value" and part of their "credo" there is really no balance in retail. Lots of overtime hours without compensation(salary plus) for mgmnt. Zero travel time during the holiday season to see your family. Intense micro managing from senior leadership. Zero recognition from senior leadership. They pick you apart and tear you down in person, but then they preach about recognition on the conference calls. Very difficult to hold people accountable without a detailed and documented timeline of events.
