Pros

Very good benefits, especially the PTO it accrues based on hours worked. A full time employee can expect 8 plus hours accrued per month on top of base of 32 a year. Sick time accrues the same way, but a little less. Pay is good and work life balance is amazing for management.

Cons

Can be difficult to get HR to help out and it is very hard to fire employees that need to go .

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.
