Pros

- Some good employees - Access to newest tech - Good place to gain sales experience - General manager was really great. - Sales manager was great.

Cons

- The pay structure was impossible. If you're not in home theater/audio it's impossible to get more then minimum wage. - Massive favoritism. It's a cesspool of overconfident guys thinking they're untouchable. And they are. - Outdated sales strategies that you're forced to follow. Customers can see through the bait and switch. - I felt almost attacked by upper management at times for not making quotas. Even if we were extremely slow. 1 customer/day sort of slow. - The store itself needs an update. Very old looking, warehouse had mold. - Did not treat their staff like they were important. The idea that you were disposable was regularly held over your head if you complained. - They WILL NOT fire any sales staff. We had awful awful staff that they kept on because they were all friends . - Most salespeople at my location already had plans to leave the store when they found another job. - They bring ex-employees in instead of hiring new people with a fresh outlook and perspective. - Had to regularly work 12 hours shifts. Boxing day/ Black Friday I worked 17 hours nonstop. - Only female salesperson. There was a lot of harassment from the 'boys' Although my manager did try to make sure i was comfortable in the workplace.

Pros

-good money depending on the time of year -flexible hours -great store atmosphere and management

Cons

Head office is too involved in stores day to day process, and this wasn't the case 8 months ago. When a new company president was hired he took it upon himself to micromanage every GM without knowing the cultures of the different locations. Extremely long holiday hours and no overtime. Extremely competitive sales practice which scares customers away. "Competitive" pricing which leads to sales staff to make nothing in commission due to constant discounting that is enforced. Online sales through the website taking sales from actual sales staff on the floor. Different discounts online which take away from the sales staff. Too focused on just making any sale, and severely raising extended warranty prices and still expecting sales staff to be able to hit a goal when a 5 yr warranty on a 85" tv is approximately 839.99 which is actually one a 4 year warranty as the first year of manufacture is counted.
