Pros

manager was fairly flexible with scheduling staff at our location was really tight technical aspects of the job are not particularly difficult commission structure improved over time

Cons

head office did not know how to communicate in a timely way with stores important information was withheld for reasons that are completely unfathomable lack of customers leads to loss of energy which head office blames you for it's your fault that no one wants to buy a watch, every time. pay is pathetic even with improvements commission works out to almost nothing

Decent, if constrained, entry-level sales role for students

Business Outlook

Pros

I happened to have lively and friendly coworkers, and the pure thrill (as a high schooler) of closing a big sale was pretty rewarding.

Cons

Many. Only given sporadic part-time hours, and management enforced a barrage of annoying and unnecessarily strict rules regarding attire, demeanor, lunch breaks, technology (personal and company), organizational aspects, etc. I'm glad I spent the summer getting the work experience, but it's not a company or environment I would go back to.
