Pros

The job is alright to work at. I enjoy talking to the people when they come in, and helping them with what they need to buy.

Cons

You need to know and learn a lot to work there and they only pay you minimum wage for it. As an easytech associate I have to know the whole left side of the store, know what each product is and what it can be used for, and how to solve problems that customers might have with them. So while I'm supposed to help each customer, I'm also supposed to be fixing the computers, and re-stocking the shelves all around the store. As I mentioned earlier, I'm supposed to do all this stuff and I get paid minimum wage for it. It is definitely a lot of stuff and not enough for it. Also I hate pushing warranties on computers, which the management will practically kill you if you ever sell a laptop without a warranty
