Pros

Great pay. Prospects for new managers that are just starting with the company should take advantage of the growth that is currently taking place. If you can get on the bandwagon of the new and improved "small" store concept, you could be promoted quickly.

Cons

Benefits - (insurance, stock,,,,etc..) have went down considerably the past year.

Pros

The sales team is friendly. Basic respect amongst co-workers. Not many pros anymore.

Cons

Micro-managed, over-trained, oppressed. Sales Consultants income cut in half in the last six months due to daily mandatory trainings you are not paid for, nor are needed. Trainings go on for hours and and are basic, boring, and rudimentary. Perhaps, a new sales associate, who is also new to sales, could learn from them but most are offended.
