Pros

Able to control your income with a decent hourly pay, and commission on sales

Cons

My job title was VCS, or inside counter sales. I was hired knowingly with no sales experience, and coaching/training expected. That was non existent. Everything seemed to start of decently, until the shop was relocated. All good immediately went down the drain. It was quickly realized that the company had bitten off more than it could chew. Sales goals were increased along with heavy tension and contradicting statements and disagreements between owners and managing partner.. all while overtime was put on a strict freeze. Then I was stripped of my ability to do my job duties, being sent on installations and into production, proceeded by randomly being fired for not meeting the sales goal. The place was very clique-ey. You were either in their little inside club, or not. At time of termination, I was actually told that I was an extremely hard worker, but that hard work was not what mattered to the company. If you want to feel like a valuable human, this is not the place as they only refer to you as a "resource". As long as the current owners are operating this location, I would steer clear by any means necessary.

Pros

Solid company that pays fairly for your experience. Benefits start right away. All of the equipment is brand new because this is a new center and they are willing to get you what ever you need to do your job if they don't already have it.

Cons

They have unrealistic expectations. One of the owners is a micromanager that tends to jump to the wrong conclusions when she doesn't understand your systems. She can be quite insulting and talks down to everyone.
