      Pros

      Good pay for the city it's located in. Time off earned at a decent rate.

      Cons

      Shifts to unload truck/replenish inventory start at 4 a.m. Doesn't really matter if you have the day off prior, you have to spend it sleeping just to be ready for the 4 a.m. shift. You get bounced around a lot on schedules, mostly because there's not enough people to cover. Other than these two specific cons, it's the usual retail crud.

      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.
