Pros

Great development if you work with your leaders on it. Inside and outside training available. Really care about their employees. Some of the best benefits in the industry from healthcare to financial advisors to family planning. Corporate is very hands on in developing the company in a great way based on customer service. Holiday pay is great. Non commissioned in most sales positions but great bonuses if you hit goals.

Cons

Every store runs quite a bit differently, management per store really controls how the store feels and operates. PTO when first becoming full time is unbearable low.

Pros

No pros. Just don’t work here.

Cons

This job adds little to no value, either for customers or for career growth. The primary focus is pushing credit cards and memberships that many customers don’t actually need, making the work feel repetitive and unfulfilling. The workplace culture and management are poor, and employees are often assigned busywork instead of meaningful responsibilities. There is almost no opportunity to develop product knowledge or apply any technical or electronics skills. Even the sales experience is limited since the role revolves around following scripted pitches rather than building genuine sales or customer relationship skills. Overall, it’s not a strong entry-level position for someone looking to develop transferable skills. There are many other jobs that provide better learning opportunities, stronger career growth, and more valuable real-world experience.
