Pros

Working with very friendly and knowledgeable coworkers. I was able to handle and learn about many different firearms.

Cons

The GM had the mentality that anyone could do our jobs. This is a terrible mindset to have when dealing with firearms and federal background checks. The pay was not good. Little room for advancement. Understaffed and stressful environment. Especially during the weekends. Club Card apps were the only metric management really cared about.
