Pros

Love the coworkers, we work together as a team and we dont mind helping on another when a problem arises.

Cons

Comission went from 40-50% retail from 10 to 5% and those damn coupons for haircuts on the back of walmart reciepts for 9.99 haircut as if making comission wasn't already hard enough.
