Pros

I am grateful for my amazing coworkers who are always patient to teach when I am unsure of something.

Cons

Management's expectations are unrealistic considering how understaffed the service department is. Three of my coworkers were written up in the past just for not having high enough numbers. Management expects those numbers even when you have to juggle the front desk of the tech lab as well as diagnosing, repairing, and building pcs for customers. There is also store stock which is expected to be done but the labor cost is incredibly low and a waste of time for technicians who need to meet a high labor quota.

Pros

Job is easy enough if you know a lot about electronics and have good people skills.

Cons

4 dollar base pay with a commission system. Can’t do anything to change it if it’s a slow day or time of year.
