Vantaggi

Learn basics of retail and inventory as well as sales. Small incentives for selling store-offered products and services. Paid vacation and sick time.

Svantaggi

Always short handed and understaffed. Management is understaffed. Compensation is insufficient for work expected. Expect to work late nearly every shift due to a high turnover rate. Blackout days cannot be asked off (all parking-lot sale days). Promotion from within requires relocation thus limiting advancement, sales of company products are pushed almost too hard.

Vantaggi

Great benefits, fast paced environment, good teamwork. I liked the hours, you get an education about tools, whether from your coworkers or the customers. And speaking of the customers, they were on the better side for retail. Most are down to earth and easy to converse with.

Svantaggi

Supply chain issues, many parts would never be replenished, despite being featured, advertised, and on display. That would often lead to tensions with customers. Aggressive time constraints on tasks. Sidewalk sales, holidays, and also coincidentally inclement weather days, can be quite busy and therefore stressful. Especially if there's call outs, but if you have a good management team, you'll have good staff that will want to work for them.
