Pros

The culture of the company, work relationships formed over time, the career advancement potential (sometimes), variety of work rolls available in the field. Best in the consumer electronics field, especially compared to the train wreck that is Circuit City right now. The Local leadership and management teams.

Cons

Life Balance is always an ongoing challenge, constant re-orgs over the years that have resulted in major uncertainty for the future and many people in positions they don't understand, especially at the corporate office. This has also resulted in a very difficult environment to navigate when getting business support or answers to questions.

Pros

Travel to different store locations. On travel that requires a hotel meals are covered up to $80 a day. Mileage is reimbursed outside of 20miles from home and back.

Cons

You're required to have a car and it puts alot of strain on it and your body. You could be gone from home anywhere from a few days to a few months. Changes are very last minute.
