Pros

paid weekly, good pay when you figure in the overtime. no life as i didn't get home before 9pm when i worked in the bigger cities.

Cons

little time off. 6 yrs. there and had 52+ hrs per wk. 9am til midnight are not unheard of. i worked in several areas of the country and it was the same everywhere i went. Vacation time is restricted to @8-9 months out of the year, with senior people having several weeks (4 or 5) at a time. store managers make the difference between a good work place or a bad one.most stores have only 5 people at a store and they work 5 10-12 hrs. days. most summers are 6 days a week and 52+ hours a week. beginers will spend several months doing nothing but deliveries and credit runs til late night in bad areas. then you'll be asked why you aren't getting sales at the end of the month. don't expect to have breaks at anytime, went 9am to 4pm before we'd get a break.

Pros

I was able to negotiate my pay because of the horrible conditions I wasn't aware I would be working on.

Cons

Literally the worst job I've ever had. Cockroach infestation in the office room. Unable to do work without finding them crawling on your hands and finding then in your shoes and pockets. After asking management about it they literally laughed about it. Training basically doesn't exist. They give you a book and which doesn't match the online work at all. Everything is a complete organized mess and barely operates day to day.

Pros

The only pro about this job is that you get a workout

Cons

Overworked Time frame on deliveries, no matter what floor you are delivering too. Furniture frequently damaged because they do not provide the proper things to protect the furniture, except for a blanket and we are automatically blamed for it.
