      I have been working at Rent-A-Center full-time for more than a year

      Pros

      (Post for working at the Headquarters) Great people and management. Ability to attend conferences and learn Supportive team and very collaborative environment Relaxed on taking time to attend kid functions and other things that come up (as long as its not abused). Decent-good work-life balance

      Cons

      Nothing specific. Working in an office environment always has some cons that are specific to an individual, but not enough to be reviewed.

        Pros

        Set schedule. It was a paycheck.

        Cons

        Almost everything else. Credit/sales goals that have to met weekly. Had a GM that customers could manipulate to not pay, but my job performance was based of their payment history.
