Pros

You can get paid to do absolutely nothing, which is what most of the employees do.

Cons

No flexibility in scheduling, no recognition for sales for selling ability (zero commission, or incentive). Weak management team, very high turnover rate. Maybe a good job for high school kids, thats about it. Seems like the long time employees are BITTER because they cannot do any better. Dont waste your time with this place.
