Pros

- hardly any, the "freebies"you get are used testers or testers that are about to be expired

Cons

- high expectations for sales metrics, to a point where it's the only thing that is constantly drilled in your head during training - be aware of "black out dates" can't call out, even if you have any emergency - clique-y management, usually only cares when sales are not meeting goals - high volume stores are dirty, too busy, with entitled customers - training is just watching videos and then expected to perform on the floor immediately - flex positions are unstable and usually are used for labor only, don't expect to stay for too long since you are technically a seasonal employee - hard to get hours even if you are FT or PT, despite being a high performing employee - strict and unreasonable attendance policy, management will not hesitate to let employees go - you get overworked and management makes it hard for employees who have a second job, they expect open availability by all means - racial bias when hiring, just visit a store to get a vibe check
