Pros

Decent pay Commission Great backstory(from downfall to success) The job itself isn't too difficult or tedious( must able to stand at least 8 hrs a day) No micro management Good training

Cons

Management is mediocre Lots of false promises ( ex. they advertise the possibility of making 6 figures ; thats pretty much impossible in NYC w/ actual commission rate) Commission is taxed The list goes on...

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.

Pros

Commission is decent and that hourly pay is okay.

Cons

Management never seems to be on the same page. Way too easy to lose motivation for that company.
