Pros

Allowed me an avenue to learn from an experience what I chose to. Also I needed the management expereince to move on in the business world.

Cons

The sales pressure is insane for the amount of compensation. Not to mention the salary is low and the items that you do make commission on are not the items that GNC wants you to sell to meet sales goals. Obviously this creates a huge conflict of interest for sales associates not to mention leaves the customer, not always with the best product, but rather the product the store needed to sale to get its numbers.

Pros

The job provides excellent exposure to a structured sales plan for someone new to sales. The store gets plenty of foot traffic to create opportunities for customer engagement. The varriety of products to sell on is great as well. Pro Access is a great value for customers building a pre and post work out regiment or building a supplement routine.

Cons

You run the show. While there you are responsable for running the store.
