It's retail

Pros

Work with good people, usually. Creative problem solving and designing spaces is fun and makes the day go by faster. The discount is good,

Cons

It's still retail and many of the products are overpriced. The way closet design is done makes it harder to sell because you can't give people a design and prices for all styles of closets.

Pros

Good health insurance. Had good stock options, not sure now that they're bankrupt. Pro is that Satish is no longer there

Cons

Bad upper management. No room for growth. Terrible pay, even worse raises- did not account at all for inflation nor cost of living. Awful hours
