Pros

My favorite part of the job is interacting with customers and the sales aspect of the job. It feels good making sales and it feels good helping people out...even though there's no commission. The 401k plan is good too.

Cons

Long hours, hard work, hectic schedule, high stress environment, work-life balance, little to no appreciation from managers, disorganized boss, over-worked and underpaid, no commission, had to wait till Sunday night to get the weekly schedule which made planning my week difficult.
