Pros

Great flexibility and place to work for people that need part time work. They do care about you in their own way.

Cons

Company is going down due to the saturation of the market in large retailers so they will soon be like circuit city.

Pros

Easy money for easy work. The majority of the staff are amateurs, if you have prior experience repairing computers, this job would be extremely easy for you.

Cons

Often times your superiors know less about the technical work necessary, however to push sales, they offer impossible services to unknowing customers. The techs are the ones in the end that have to deal with the dilemmas.

Pros

Pros of working in a retail setting is simple; flexible schedules, learning environment, majority of the time, you work with good people who are there to learn, make a difference, and encourage their fellow employees.

Cons

Paychecks seem to be a constant con that comes with a retail job, I also do not like working on holidays. IE: Christmas Eve. Personally, I think that in itself is a complete travesty. But then again, I guess there are people who do not celebrate Christmas Eve or anything of that nature. Oh well.
