Pros

Salary and benefits for General Managers. Better than most retailers in employee perks. Associates can earn incentives for selling protection plans, achieving customer service goals and sales goals in certain departments. Assistant managers scheduled 45 hours per week.

Cons

Embarrassingly low pay rate for certified computer technicians resulting in high turnover or hiring of less qualified technicians. There is a difference of several dollars in pay between our techs and Geek Squad. Severe cuts in payroll with a drastic increase in tasks and goals. The pressure has increased so much to perform with less resources. We are now having 5 conference calls per week about performance. There are currently 20+ "TOP PRIORITY" focuses in the stores.
