Pros
You don't have to have extensive furniture knowledge to be successful.
Cons
What you do have to be is a telemarketer which is not what I signed on for. First off, they stated an 'average' sales person makes around a 40k a year income with a 401k match, both not true. Truthfully, this is a $10 an hour 'order taker' job with a ZERO 401k match. The average sales person struggles to survive. Every day your scrambling around badgering every customer that walks through the doors for their name, address, phone number, and email. Why? Because City has sales events and demands you relentlessly contact and badger people to come in and purchase. In addition, they micromanage and track your outcome with every customer. Better be a good 'data collector' (another thing I didn't sign on for). On top of that your a commissioned employee, yet your required to work extra hours such as 'bell to bell' a 12 hour day, or 'jump' meaning working on your days off to reach insurmountable impossible sales goals. If you don't make your monthly sales goal no worries, it's just added onto your next months goals. After that if your short, your gone. The 'so called' guaranteed pay is misleading. If your on it for over a couple of weeks missing your commissioned sales goals, it a mere 'guarantee' of termination. This is a straight commission job that's just a complete revolving door. I've worked many sales jobs and this by far was one of the worst ones I've ever had.
