Pros

Good benefits, lots of stores nationwide make it easy to transfer if you choose. Generally good job security.

Cons

Customers are Number 1, not employees. Past few years have been followers of our competitors rather than leaders of the industry. Have wasted millions on trying things they do and then millions more reversing these ideas. Most employees with some time with the company could have told "them" that. That is the real problem in a nutshell.

Pros

If you consider yourself a "people person" it is a great way to meet and become friends with high volumes of people. In most departments if you ask a day off in enough advance the day is yours to have.The discount and the bonuses are helpful.

Cons

Poor training is exhibited from all forms of management within the store. Experience is ventured differently to this company, meaning that if you are older than your peer even if you have less experience within the company your given the job. Also if you are young and more able to do a job than a peer who may have been employed longer you will not get the job. Cyber Scholars only train you on how to approach a sale not any valid product knowledge

Pros

Flexible hours, great people, great for team building, 2 weeks to learn job and great training program for specific job. Some jobs are worth the pay.

Cons

Organization, and training on technology was lacking. Expected to much adaptability from workers. Pay was pathetic and job was boring at the very best.
