Pros

Commission on membership sales and replacement plans for tools, my store allowed employees to apply coupons to sale if customer had none in order to partially or fully cover membership/plan sale, easy environment to work in, managers really try to allow time for family and children of employees,

Cons

Retail, customers take advantage of the 90 day return policy and keep coming back over and over because managers lay down and let them walk all over them, company relies too much on customer is always right approach and should back it's employees more if situation is justified
