Pros

Good pay, time off benefits. A lot of fun going to work. Very productive place to expand your knowledge. Coworkers are the best in the industry. Truely committed to taking care of the customer.

Cons

Need to expand the ability to move up in the company without personal bias entering into it. Promotion based on performance should alway reign.

Pros

They provide plenty of in depth training both before and during employment. The ability to grow in knowledge base is there you just have to make sure you go after it and stand up for yourself. Don't wait for someone to tell you to go to training, ask for it.

Cons

The coverage in all departments is stretched too thin by managers trying to maximize sales without too much payroll involved.
