Pros

Great place to get face-to-face selling experience. Good fellow employees. We sell guns. :)

Cons

Corporate bureaucracy often lacks common sense Somewhat of a disconnect between Corporate policies and the freedom to conduct business at the store level according to local community habits. Weekly varying retail schedules are extremely frustrating!
