Pros

Harbor Freight really looks after their employees. Bonus opportunities are nice and easy to get. Company pays for majority of the medical/dental/vision benefits and have a great 401k.

Cons

Turnover is high because of how much is asked for part time employees to do given the amount of business they receive. Wages continues to rise for part time employees.

Pros

Great benefits, fast paced environment, good teamwork. I liked the hours, you get an education about tools, whether from your coworkers or the customers. And speaking of the customers, they were on the better side for retail. Most are down to earth and easy to converse with.

Cons

Supply chain issues, many parts would never be replenished, despite being featured, advertised, and on display. That would often lead to tensions with customers. Aggressive time constraints on tasks. Sidewalk sales, holidays, and also coincidentally inclement weather days, can be quite busy and therefore stressful. Especially if there's call outs, but if you have a good management team, you'll have good staff that will want to work for them.
