Pros

Literally the only pro is the steep discounts that you get on proprietary items. Granted, most of those items are made using cheap materials and cheap labor. The only other pro is getting out of there because you realize just how much better off you are.

Cons

-Nearly everyone that works at corporate is extremely clueless -They prefer to put bandaids on problems instead of actually fixing them. -They are extremely cheap and deceitful -They have fragile egos and will not hesitate to fire people over the most petty things. -The pay is absolutely terrible. They won't pay associates over minimum wage and they cut hours without notice. -They refuse to trust their employees because of how extremely narrow minded they are -They care way more about protection plan sales than their employees. -They constantly put you in a position to deal with dissatisfied customers because of their ancient systems.

Pros

Very clean and well organized wharehouse.

Cons

These are just my opinions and not stated facts. A lot of micromanaging goes on to the point that it's annoying. People don't work well together at the main distribution center. There are some nice people who work there, but far more annoying ones than good ones. Like others have said in their reviews, they don't care if something comes up in your personal life and you need to miss a day — you’re still going to get a point. They want you to be flexible and work overtime when needed, but they aren't willing to do the same. Overall, it's just bad management and a burnout job that will get you nowhere.
