Pros

It was okay working there, they promote a lot from the inside which is cool. I started the same day as one of my friends making 8.75 but I only worked there for 7 months. He still works there two years later and got promoted to Install Supervisor and makes around $15 an hour now.

Cons

The bosses are overall lame and didn't give credit where it was due. They would only notice when something wasn't done right and then complain about that.

Pros

Great General Manager, that’s about it.

Cons

All of the leadership besides the GM were unprofessional. They couldn’t help it but most were incompetent.

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.
