Pros

Good work environment, products are very solid so most sell themselves. mostly quality people come into the store, DIY or contractor. Managers give time off if you give them the heads up. I like the business.

Cons

Retail, open on weekends, company isn't doing well so cutting hours. Manager isn't as solid as others. not much opportunity for growth in the near future. Working with DIY can be very stressful at times. working with some contractors can be awful because of how some treat you and think they are better than you. training is basically watching training cds and getting onto the sales floor, which is the best way to learn, but is very uncomfortable for the first few weeks.

Pros

Leadership training, flexible schedule if your store has the necessary staffing, 401k match

Cons

If you don't have staffing then you are required to work weekends consistently, Sales calls requirements keep getting higher and higher, incompetent corporate leadership. Pay is based on 44 hours worked weekly for assistants(48 for Store managers; leaves room for less work/life balance
