Pros

Great products. Plenty of tv and radio advertising.

Cons

No training whatsoever. Basicly 100% commision job. First you must "cover your hours," then you get commision on anything over that. So the net result is, you are 100% commision unless you do not make your quota, then you get a very poor hourly wage. They give you vacation, but frown on you if you try to accually use it. If you don't use it, you lose it. This is definatly a company of yes-men. You either drink the koolaid or there's the door. Management doesn't even pretend to care about its employees. After two strait years of being a "presidents club member," I was unceremonisly let go because our new store manager didn't think I "gelled" with his management style. Again, looking for 100% yesmen, who don't mind being dumped on constantly. If you work here don't ever plan on getting a weekend or holiday off. I've worked for many companies, but this place was the very worst.

Pros

Management is very flexible with giving personal time off because they can't get anyone else to work for $8.00/ hour.

Cons

With all of the promotions, it's too hard to hit the draw to make commission. And all of the responsibility-trash, shipping, receiving, cleaning, phone calls-with all there is to do, sometimes the customers come last!
