Pros
Every day is a different challenge. I get the beauty of working in a music store with the opportunity to help a team of passionate musicians build a niche skill of driving a business. The company is going down a more structured training route to prevent what has happened in the past of "just throwing you in." There are great career advancement opportunities and wonderful benefits.
Cons
It is very high pressure, competitive, and the entire weight of the success of the store is on the shoulders of the team running it. As a Store Manager, it is tough to feel you have gotten proper training, as your main trainer is your District Manager who runs 9-16 stores at once. You have to be creative and self motivated to be successful and sometimes it feels there is a flaw in the communication lines,
