Pros

Willing to give overtime Able to gain some customer service experience

Cons

Company is poorly managed. Wants a commission level of work for no commission based pay. Treats the position as a real sales job including up-selling with no reason to do so other than to attract more customers. Trying to sell electronics at the store is hard due to lackluster pricing and products. You will have to do "busy work" for many hours of the day.

Pros

None at all. Worst job I've ever had.

Cons

First off the hours were rediculous, I'd be working at 4:30 pm one day and then 7 am the next. Second, they want to be a "services company" but they don't want to compensate you for it. You can sell like crazy, I was a go-getter, the higher ups even flew out to our location and congratulated me, and they'll give you? What? Maybe a little more than $100? Oh and actually, they won't even give you that. After I quit they kept my commission! Insanity. This is by far the worst company I've ever worked with. Way to show your employees how much you care.
