Svantaggi
There's a lot of traffic. as a designer, sometimes serious conversations about budget or issues can be a problem when there are 10 people standing around my desk. Or just staring at you, waiting for you to be done. Lots of interruptions. Appointments people may have waited a week for will get stopped because another customer needs help with a water filter, or a dishwasher, or needs toknow where the restroom is. You are in a fish bowl. Designers do not get the respect or pay that they deserve. Therefore they have a high turnover. The needs of the business will come before your family. Period. Unless you're a single person, with no children thats willing to "Bleed Orange" dont expect to have success there. Also, the business is saturated with Nepotism. They will tell you there are no positions available and promote a regional manager's son in an advanced leadership program. There were several married couples, in supervisor roles, and Parent/child relationships with in the store I worked. The work environment and sacrafices my kids were making were too much.
