Pros

There are no pros, It was awful and full of people working dead-end jobs that will never be anything in life. Preferred to reward people with tenure instead of people with merit.

Cons

everything, everything. everything. everything. it was awful in every way.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. It is good to hear that you enjoyed designing PCs and valued your coworkers. We appreciate your honesty regarding the retail schedule and the fluctuations that come with a commission-based pay structure. We understand that the ebb and flow of sales is a different experience than more traditional roles. Thank you again for the time you spent with us, and we wish you success in your future endeavors.
