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

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.
