Pros

Great discount, flexible schedule, fun work environment, constant learning of new products

Cons

good pay while in college but not enough to cut it after wards, management will let you know everything you do wrong and look over everything you do right! If you hit budget then that just means they raise the bar even more so your never doing better then expected! every meeting there is a new goal either its customer satisfaction, warranty sales, getting rid of close out items so the job is always changing.

Pros

No Need to sell or deal with customers (Much) Constantly moving so you always have a task to do Management leaves you to your own devices Almost all warehouse employees have a set of headphone

Cons

Everyone (Cust & employees) Expect an encyclopedic knowledge on where every single item is. Management seems to think we can lift a 85" tv, pull a washer off the top shelf, stock gaming shelves, and handle store pick up at the same moment. Customers think we don't want to help them when we call someone else to help with sales There's almost too much to do and even though we may have 1-3 employees working at a time, 1 is at the door, 1 is behind store pick up, which leaves 1 employee to handle new orders, deliveries, and down stocking.
