Pros

great discounts on accessories and some time on epp

Cons

too much work load no work life balance despite sales job you are not paid commission or incentive lack of appreciation they will say in the starting that we are flexible but later on will not adjust to the timings and will need more hours. I have seen people working more than 50 hrs in a week plus they don't pay over time upto 5 week.

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.
