Pros

Excellent and constant training, great management (though that can change from store to store), can teach you all you need to know about sales for later jobs!

Cons

Just not enough pay for what you do, but what can you expect for a big box retail? They do pay better than most other retail stores.

Pros

-It's a job that is available in most locations.

Cons

-The company, on a corporate level, doesn't seem to grasp the value of the talent they have. - Close ties with Citibank subvert the importance of product knowledge, customer service, and revenue for credit card sales. - Daily Performance check-ins are overbearing and myopic. - Tends to burnout motivated employees with false carrots and hollow promises. - Pay's terrible, and rides the line of predatory at times.
