Pros

Good people working there. Made lasting friendships. Great employee discounts. Keep up to date with the IT industry. Could be good. Home office should visit the stores more often to get the feel of the stores.

Cons

Daily getting cursed at. Management doing what they please to fire people. Not following their own policies and procedures. Not a good place to work right now. Makes your blood pressure go up, everytime you go to work. Very stressful not knowing if you are going to get fired each time you go to work.

Pros

Employee discount is good on some items depending on the margins. Some coworkers are easy to get along with and very helpful.

Cons

The base pay $4 an hour, is not enough for what they make Sales Associates do. Sales Associates are expected to stock shelves from warehouse, clean the sales floor, sell products and deal with difficult customers whilst deterring theft. What home office wants us to do is "wait tables and cook food." Instead of hiring the right people into the right positions they just hire more sales associates to fill other roles such as, warehouse and security.
