Vantaggi

-Extremely easy work...I sit at a desk for hours a day doing absolutely nothing -VERY good pay for college part time ($12.00) -You'll most likely have an opportunity for full time employment somewhere in the region because of high turnover rates

Svantaggi

-As a female I have been harassed multiple times. It may just be the industry, but I feel I am the only woman these men see all day when they're on the job and forget how to act with decency. -Extremely boring work. There's nothing to do most of the time so I sit around clicking and hope my boss doesn't catch me doing nothing and make me clean the dust off of an assortment of products that have been sitting on the shelf for YEARS -No culture. It's putting away inventory and answering phones and occasionally some deliveries. You can form relationships with customers, but don't expect to meet anyone you can go to happy hour with after hours. -STINGY. We receive multiple reminders to turn down the heat in the stores to reduce costs. As part-time I get the same Christmas bonus as full-time employees, which is a box of junk food. Apparently in corporate they don't even have free coffee for employees! -There's always something to improve on. Charge the customer for EVERYTHING. These items are high priced as it is, I feel bad adding on asinine shipping costs to a customers order.

Vantaggi

Lots of responsibility. Decentralized company, which can work in your favor.

Svantaggi

Pay is low based on competitors. Politics, lots of it. Cost-centers everywhere. Everyone has to make money off the branches: the hub, NA, regions, support, etc. Being a GM is probably one of the hardest jobs. Your job on the lean team is to support NA and the branch. It is hard to fully support both at the same time. It is a balancing act that frequently is blamed on you. Frequently, your coworkers just want to put their name on your work and create problems because of their egos.
