Pros

Relaxed days are very relaxed, and get to spend time joking around with coworkers and learning about new products and whatnot. The discount is really really good depending on the products. Not uncommon to get an $80 cable for $7.

Cons

Corrie Barry is running it into the ground for the most part. Shareholders are prioritized far far above the employees or even the customers. There is no viable upward track for salespeople, and raises are virtually nonexistent. Hard to find a store that values the work of their employees because incentive programs are devised entirely by the managers, and if you have mediocre managers, you have no incentives.

Pros

Travel to different store locations. On travel that requires a hotel meals are covered up to $80 a day. Mileage is reimbursed outside of 20miles from home and back.

Cons

You're required to have a car and it puts alot of strain on it and your body. You could be gone from home anywhere from a few days to a few months. Changes are very last minute.
