Pros

Learned a lot about what was sold.

Cons

A good talker could (and would) unload needless or inappropriate merchandise onto customers. I found this to be a poor practice but upper management did not seem to care.

Pros

I worked at one of the local stores so all of the people I worked with were great and I knew everybody. My manager also allowed me to do an internship while there as a managment trainee which helped me land another job during school more in line with my major.

Cons

Because it was a store owned by a local family is was a fairly small operation and advancement rarely came along. There seems to be a distant connection between corporate and the family owned Ace's which would make it difficult for anyone who wanted to jump the gap.
