Pros

Good pay Fairly good hours Low layoff risk Company will hire/promote from within often.

Cons

So far after working here 5 years I have noticed the pay does not scale well for long term employment. Even after multiple conversations with management pay seems to only go up when you get promoted. In my case this means that 2 new hire tech 1's are getting paid 13% more, even though I am a promotion ahead of them. Support model is onsite only for my position and for engineers in other positions they were converted from mostly remote to mostly onsite. There were also many tech layoffs recently. Company has become more soulless in the 5 years I've worked here, benefits have gotten worse, and company overall seems to be in a state of saving capital at the moment.

Pros

Good commission (for my department it was 10%), great coworkers—made amazing friends from my time here!! Opportunity for lots of commission $ during busy times.

Cons

Management is awful.. Plays favorites to an INSANE degree. For whatever reason I got onto the bad side of my department manager. Literally would call me into the office (taking away time on the floor to sell) to YELL at me until I cried for things that my coworkers got away with and didn’t even get so much as a talking to. Btw, what got me this treatment? Would be something pretty awful right? Coming in 5 min late. Big whoop. Also, management would promote people who quite literally had to take leaves of absence after having sexual harassment claims made against them… but then not only were they allowed to come back BUT also become floor managers. And what happened when he made it to that position? Literally got a sexual harassment claim again. I wonder how that could have been mitigated? The favoritism is so severe and unprofessional that when I was asking to get my job back for the holiday season I was told that there was nothing in the schedule available for me when in fact they were short staffed. And my coworker? The manager literally responded with “yes PLEASE 😍” yes. With the emoji. Grown man btw! Also, during that period the store was very shortstaffed with people quitting left and right. So, a lie.
