I worked at Circuit City full-time for less than a year

Pros – Easy job, good hours, some unique characters. A learning experience

Cons – Ah my 4 months at circuit city. I was hired to be the team lead of the Product Flow Team. Basically it was an assistant inventory/stocking/warehouse manager. My direct boss was not too bright. He interviewed me 3 times. Each time he asked the same exact questions. On the 3rd time I finally just looked at him and said "are you going to hire me or not?". The pay was abysmal. It was 7 bucks an hour. I had a team of two 18 year old stoners who I had to make sure put out the inventory at night, shipped back damaged goods, and redid sales tags. I just made sure they did it and surfed the internet in the warehouse. Employees and customers stole like it was going out of style. The car stereo guys were all ex cons and rude. It was a bizarre place to work. I got a real job after only 4 months and CC went out of business 5 months later. Wonder why?

Advice to Senior Management – Isn't going to help them now anyway.
