Pros

Benefits for healthcare, employee pricing, third party pricing are great. Can be an exciting place with constant change. Never boring. Hands down the best experience you will have in retail. Great starting pay with no experience as long as your cool. You will get a lot if hands on experience and see behind the curtain if a successful company.

Cons

Employee shelf life is 1-2 years. Turn over is 30% a year. Company is so successful that retail middle management hasn't got much else to do but watch over your shoulder. Since most upper level positions in retail are external hires, management doesn't know how to use the technology they expect you to sell. They work in theory only and hide behind delegation. The people are great but it makes it much harder to compete for very few advancements. Corporate uses illusion of secrecy to hide rampant disorganization between retail, phone centers, corporate, and other support mechanisms. Reviews have been boiled down to three useless measurements expected more, achieved expectations, and exceeded expectations. Some how even though daily results are met, when reviews come up, the stores poor results explain why your raise was 0-3%.

Pros

Amazing benefits include medical, dental, vision, 401k, education reimbursement, and more. Working from home means no commute, which in turn means lower car insurance rate, more sleep, cheaper lunches.

Cons

Schedules change every three months, and 75% of them are some degree of awful. Working from home can be lonely and isolating, so not recommended for people with conditions like depression or who otherwise need to be around people. Also, the longer you are an the phones, the less you like the job.

Pros

The pay for compared to any retailer is extremely competitive, the work is not too strenuous (except during peek times for sales throughout the year), and the work environment can be somewhat positive and fun

Cons

Compared to what the company earns payment should increase, often times one must wear (too) many different hats, environment can be very stressful especially when dealing with a variety of strong personalities and poor work ethics
