      Commission is a double-edged sword

      Sales associate

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The pay potential is great for people used to jobs paying up to 12ish an hour, thanks to the commission pay scale for some departments. Good days in sales can carry your paycheck - depending on the department you could average anywhere from 18 to 30 an hour. Management I've had good experiences with but that can depend on how well they get along with you.

      Cons

      Commission pay can bring out the worst in some people, and without it yourself you only make 4$ an hour. As such slow days can feel like the worst. If people don't like you (coworkers or managers) then they can make the work hell. As it is retail work, you also will occasionally run into difficult customers or people who just waste time.

      Pros

      Decent employee discount on certain products. Good benefits from vendors, if you know how to find them. The work isn't difficult

      Cons

      Not the best pay, since it's retail. I felt limited in my ability to move up.

      Pros

      Relaxed Atmosphere, Small Company, Great People

      Cons

      No bonus opportunities for middle managers. No incentive to help the store be its best.
