Pros

Education on Musical Instruments and Pro Audio. A handful of great human beings.

Cons

Long Hours, Moronic Management, Former Guitar Center Staff takeover, Warm Calls are Cold Calls...Don't buy the B.S. and the Weather is terrible in Indiana, get ready to not see the sun 8 months out of the year. Totally not worth the move, there are plenty of jobs where you are from DON'T MOVE HERE you will hate it. The amenities are not for your "health and well being" They are to make wow you say "wow, what a great place to work" However, once you get there you will not have time to enjoy any amenities because you will be stuck on the phone with ungrateful customers all day and way to busy hating your life to stop by the Gym, or Diner. STEER CLEAR of this place if you value your Family or your happiness. The Managers pretend to care but will not be very helpful when you actually need them. They are Lazy and a good portion are from Guitar Center so they are not very bright. HR is a joke once you are onboarded and good luck using your PTO once you are in their grasp.
