Pros

Discount/ability to pay things over time was nice.

Cons

Hired on as Delivery Driver. Interview never mentioned any other aspect of the company. They never mentioned that I’d be building displays daily. They never mentioned that I’d be expected to make collections calls/visits. They never mentioned that, while inside the store, I was expected to make sales. But all of this was expected - again, with no mention of any of it in the interview process or “training.”
