Pros

Great benefits and a good sales commissions for the sales reps. The majority of the cowokers can be really great to talk to and work with.

Cons

Horrible managers that feed off of typical sales slogans or simply say no excuses when the majority of the time they are the sole reason for sale issues. EVERYTHING you sell is tracked like sports stats and are set at an extreme expectation for the month. Managers will hand off profitable sales to their friends and the unprofitable or hurtful sales are usually the only ones handed around.

Pros

The hourly rate isn't bad and the benefits are great. 50% on wireless service is awesome but could be better. Tuition Reimbursement program helped me graduate with a bachelors degree in marketing. I'm trying to think of more positives but I guess that's pretty much it.

Cons

Commissions have decreased about 50% year over year. Very difficult to balance personal/work life. Hard to move up in position regardless of longstanding leading performance in current role. Most stores are understaffed which make the job more demanding during peak hours. Managers are incompetent and inconsiderate.

Pros

Bar none the company offers the best services and great wireless products at fair prices. Company does manage to change and adapt quickly to the changing world and the technology industry.

Cons

Company allows its management to cross legal boundaries with respect to its treatment of employees. If you can produce results (at any cost) then you will be left alone despite the liability the company opens itself to. Results rule over law, fairness and decency. A very frustrating place to work. Company has all the right mottos and lingo in place to describe itself but doesn't practise what it preaches.
