Pros

This is like a candy store for geeks. Employee discount is a significant perk on some items. Some genuinely personable employees in the branch locations. Intel sales partnership program has some nice goodies once in awhile. Technically, there's a 401K plan with matching- if you can somehow afford it.

Cons

Capricious and inconsistent discipline, and abysmal communication are regular experiences here. The vision and fire have gone out of this company. Make no mistake, this is a retail company - and you will be paid retail wages, even in management and highly technical positions. I recommend everyone learn important customer service skills, and this opportunity awaits you here if you are tech savvy. I cannot recommend anything else about this company.

Pros

Excellent small family business atmosphere. Incredibly knowledgeable management and sales staff. Great selection of hard to find merchandise in other retail stores. Customer support and care was unmatched by any other company I worked for.

Cons

Some of the merchandise we sold was outdated and a bit over-priced. Location of store was a bit difficult for some customers to find.

Pros

At least with the two brances I worked at, each had a relaxed atmosphere, approachable management and flexible work schedules.

Cons

Corporate management leaves much to be desired. Communication is poor between HQ and individual stores. I was released without warning on issues I attempted to address early on as store manager but received no feedback so I simply gave up trying to fix the problem.
