Pros

the discount the discount the discount, the job is fairly cut and dry but once you get a peek into what the employee discount is you see the profit that the company brings in...the discount depends on the product..may be a few % or u may get 90% discount

Cons

you must wait three months for your benefits to start long hours during the holiday season dealing with the sometimes crazy customers

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.
