Pros

Excellent customer relations with a true opportunity to positively impact people on a day to day basis drew me at first, and has kept me going. The connections you make are worth it. The discount is decent, and the free product from vendors is awesome.

Cons

Horrible pay top to bottom, especially for the newer employees. Not much consideration given for vacation time, and very demanding requirements..adding on sales, upt, VSU constantly, etc etc. For such a fragile position and industry, and all of the required knowledge and training, the pay should be a lot higher. Employees should be treated better if you want to keep them around.

Pros

Decent hours, decent pay, assuming you're in a management position.

Cons

Lack of bonuses, and the heavy focus on 'The Shoppe' , customer service method was heavily lacking and only succeeded in making customers uncomfortable. I was told numerous times that it felt too pushy and made people hesitant to shop there.
