Pros

You are rewarded for your sales abilities, the better you are the more you would make. Commission rates are reasonable so that one can make a decent living doing retail.

Cons

The commission type of environment creates hostiliy and tension amongst co-workers. Any returns on merchandise is deducted from your pay.
