Pros

I started with the company at a new store building it from the ground up. Made alot of great friends out of working here for nearly the year I've been here now. Gaining a lot of experience with the chance to get trained by great companies like stihl, husqvarna and cub cadet.

Cons

my current downside is I wish I had more associates in my department to keep up with my work load and keeping product stocked and assembled
