Pros

Lots of rewards for doing good work, commission pay, discount, able to move up in the company if you're good at what you and follow the rules

Cons

Very difficult to make switches if you need a day off for some reason, very very strict rules, I've seen a few different people fired for easy mistakes.

Pros

Closed major holidays including Memorial Day jul 4th and labor day, time and a half on Sundays, decent product selection...sales job without high pressure to make numbers.. Customer service is more important, besides a few weeks in December the work environment is relatively low stress

Cons

-The customer is always right...you will get written up for the smallest customer complaint -Management is awful and incompetent... Repeatedly had to by- pass the floor manager to get direction from store manager -big brother is watching you... Management uses the security cameras to manage rather than work with the employees and give feedback in the moment -training is ok if you are a new hire...but if you are promoted its sink or swim into the next role -must have open availability they do not work around your schedule-single moms or any one with a life stay clear and requesting time off can be very difficult most of the time -women must wear skirts and panty hose -the company is very conservative with very conservative customers you must be PC at all times
