Pros

The company was good until it went from publicly traded company to a private firm. (Not a positive) I currently don't see a future for this company.

Cons

This company is the run lean stage, typical Massey trait. It's not good when he doesn't understand that running lean only runs businesses into the ground. My opinion is that he didn't learn his lesson from Office Depot.

Pros

If you have experience they can pay very well considering the size of the company. Depending on which store you are in, they can be pretty good at fostering a good environment and culture.

Cons

Company is primarily focused on sales and not customer experience. So expect a lot of metrics and hounding customers. Company is trying to be technologically forward but continues to neglect to invest in the technology. So there’s updates every week crashes every week with no communication around it.
