Pros

The competitive retail environment is invigorating if your into competition and beating out your peers. The opportunity to meet interesting clients and grow long lasting relationships benefits the most.

Cons

Management is sometimes a pain, as in their motive behind certain changes the company takes, a particular example is the recent pricing assistance. Furthermore compensation is unbalanced, as commission is based off growth and multiple factors that sometimes are quite hard to change but are counterproductive when focusing on growth.

Pros

fast paced, never boring, lots of room for advancement, work independently and interdependently.

Cons

Growth driven company always wanting more but that only goes one way. Profits grew 20% salary 0%. Cannot count on the distribution. Never, never tell a customer it will be here Tuesday.
