Vantaggi

Benefits, casual environment, meet some great people, see lots of material come through the store.

Svantaggi

Benefits have reduced, environment can be difficult, deal with some really awful customers, see lots of used, dirty material come through the door. It's a love/hate relationship! Hours can be grueling as evenings and weekends are required, along with many holidays. Only days the stores close are Thanksgiving and Christmas. I was with the company for 15 years and started from the bottom. Promotion only comes through the ranks, so many times you are dealing with a manager who got there because of seniority. I am a college educated individual with years of business experience. The upper management is failing their people. Not enough structure or training for any level. This began as a hippie vibe company and at some point went corporate, but only some got the memo. There are a few good people left, but sadly this company has lost a lot of great employees for many reasons. I finally had enough at the store manager level and left. Happier than ever and never have a moment of regret. Be wary as you enter this vortex!

Vantaggi

Great coworkers. Get quarterly bonus checks. Not a super hard job.

Svantaggi

Mangement is kinda iffy and they really require you to do a lot more work than you're paid for.
