Pros

Good Discounts Nice Support and opportunities for learning Good opportunity for advancement within the store Good benefits and company listens to employees.

Cons

Promotions and salary are hidden and decisions are often perceived as unfair and preferential. A lot of younger workers who can be flaky, unprofessional, and gossipy. Difficult to keep really good employees due to pay.

Pros

No Need to sell or deal with customers (Much) Constantly moving so you always have a task to do Management leaves you to your own devices Almost all warehouse employees have a set of headphone

Cons

Everyone (Cust & employees) Expect an encyclopedic knowledge on where every single item is. Management seems to think we can lift a 85" tv, pull a washer off the top shelf, stock gaming shelves, and handle store pick up at the same moment. Customers think we don't want to help them when we call someone else to help with sales There's almost too much to do and even though we may have 1-3 employees working at a time, 1 is at the door, 1 is behind store pick up, which leaves 1 employee to handle new orders, deliveries, and down stocking.
