Pros

well it is a pretty easy job, a lot of customer interaction and you dont have to learn a lot, pretty cool if you just want some money

Cons

the only bad thing is dealing with unhappy customers, but besides that if you are a college student it not a bad place to work, you dont really need to know a whole lot about tools and equipment, you learn that with the time, customer have an idea of what they want, so just tell them which aisle they need to go

Pros

Very fair to management team. Expectations are well defined. Compensation packages are at current market value. Compensation packages evaluated periodically and adjusted as needed.

Cons

Decisions from executive management come slowly. Sometimes too much of a machine, and could get trampled if you don't keep up with changes. Must be able to be dynamic, most people don't like change, but need to be aware company is always changing, so if you dont like change, keep away.

Pros

There is a lot of opportunity for growth. There is also lots of changes to move to different business units if you get bogged down in one area.

Cons

The benefits are geared toward front-line associates. They are pretty thin for a fortune 500 company. Processes are not refined either as the company grew rather large in a short period of time.
