Great employees, not so great management

General sales associate

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Able to gain knowledge in a field you're interested in. Room for advancement. Great co-workers! A busy but kind atmosphere.

Cons

Too much work in too little of a time frame. Incredibly high expectations, must find time to clean store and have high sales. Employees not recognized for accomplishments, but heavily faulted for mistakes. Barely any women, no inclusion for women interested in technology. Slight air of sexism.
