Pros

Company offers 30% off for employees at all GNC stores nationwide. You also have the opportunity to learn a bit about nutrition and nutritional supplements as part of your job.

Cons

Many entry level positions start out as full-time, temporary position. Temp employees are hourly, must punch in and out on a time clock, and receive not benefits: no health insurance, no paid days, nothing. Additionally, the company is somewhat stingy. Departments are limited to a list of only 300 office supplies they are allowed to order. If an employee needs supplies outside the 300 item list, special permission is required. It's like pulling teeth just to get basic items.

Pros

Good benefits, flexible hours, and being able to get school work done while working is amazing. Because I did super good they bumped me to $15 an hour, so plus commissions I make over $20 an hour sometimes. You just have to do your job right and you make decent money.

Cons

My starting pay was $9.5 an hour which is insane. The expectation to meet quotas is high.
