Business Outlook

Pros

Co-Workers are great and work hard.

Cons

Nobody in management seems to know what's going on. Doesn't understand how the business actually works. Unrealistic expectations.

Business Outlook

Pros

Co workers, biometric innovation, cut the first layer out of TSA check, commission + base, free shoes after 90 days, free clear membership (usually $179/yr)

Cons

Haven't set up a standardized training nationally (training is done by people from totally different airports which confuses new people because not all procedures apply everywhere), shoes are specific Nike's but have giant logo but they don't let you wear similar black tennis shoes with smaller logos, salary still is small in comparison to how much work you actually have to do in conjunction with TSA/DHS rules in the airport, convoluted processes and was hired for a totally different position but was told if I want the job I was hired for I'd have to wait to be promoted (didn't have anything to do with tech knowledge-I'm not a sales person). High turnover because you will be on your feet 8hrs, micromanaged and potentially receive little to no autonomy.
