Pros

Workload was mostly manageable, flexible scheduling.

Cons

Pay was abysmal. After working there for three years and being promoted to a key holder position, I was only making 1.00 /hr more than minimum wage. My biggest ever raise with a near perfect performance review, was 20 cents and that was right before I left the company. Also, the "tech bench" where I worked on computers was a joke. I had a three foot by two foot end cap desk where I was expected to actually work on computers. I didn't even have enough room to fit the company computer that I was supposed to use to monitor work orders, so I had to relocate it. How can you expect us to repair/upgrade customers computers when we are working in a space so small, I cant even fit my own work computer on it? We also used extremely out of date equipment / KVM switches to plug in customer PC's, had an internet connection of less than 1 Mbps, and were forced to install a "PC Tune Up" program on every computer we serviced. That program was ridiculous, it said every computer we installed it on needed a $160.00 service package, even computers that were brand new.

Pros

There are no pros to working for this company.

Cons

Low pay, grueling hours, unsafe and toxic work environment. The company does not offer opportunities for its sore employees to advance to the corporate sector; especially if you have a college degree. As a store employee neither you, your expertise and skill set, nor your ideas on how to improve workflow and company culture matter.
