Pretty good experience

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great work environment; very team-oriented. you'll learn a lot about how to approach customers from a different angle, not just come across as a salesperson. You'll make lifetime friends/colleagues. Great scheduling/flexibility for those still in high school/college. Highly recommend for students.

Cons

company is going through some changes and policies are getting stricter. its harder on the employees who are already in the company; if you're going to join the company now, you won't notice the difference and you should manage just fine. Promotions from within the company have come to decline since the changes have taken place; instead of promoting from within (like they used to) they are hiring people from the outside for upper-level management. It makes sense from a macro standpoint but it hurts the employees who have been loyal to the company for years.

Unreasonable sales goals

Business Outlook

Pros

employee discount that is great along with the ability to work in a comfortable work environment

Cons

The sales goals can be unreasonable, and employees taking sales can be the normal, especially managers as they are required to meet certain goals as well.
