Pros

Benefits are solid, pay is decent for a retail store. if you're a fan of electronics you get to work in an environment surrounded by them. the company will respect your availability/schedule outside of the super crunch holiday season.

Cons

Company seems more interested in selling credit cards and memberships than actual products; customers can be pretty demanding, and will frequently ignore what you have to tell them. stores are pretty badly understaffed, so don't expect support if it gets busy.

Great place to work if you love tech.

They have turned into corporate America. No longer care about their employees like they used to.

Pros

Travel to different store locations. On travel that requires a hotel meals are covered up to $80 a day. Mileage is reimbursed outside of 20miles from home and back.

Cons

You're required to have a car and it puts alot of strain on it and your body. You could be gone from home anywhere from a few days to a few months. Changes are very last minute.
