Pros

Fairly flexible hours, potential for growth, everyone can make commission, plenty of incentives and spiffs. Small staff makes it more of a family like feel with managers that care

Cons

Unless you're really into sales keep in mind this is a very numbers driven . While they care about their employees their sales and attach and even how much email addresses you obtain in a day mean more to them. If you're having a bad week or not perfoming well, the stress and pressure may really weigh in on you. Beginning to have a lot more micro management than it used to and they nit pick about they way every little detail is done. They do not have a set way of doing things its a bit frustrating when one day things are done a certain way and the next day you're told its done another. Especially when having to deal with the backlash of irate customers that are constantly being told different information.

Pros

Customer obsessed culture with a strong emphasis on expertise and service. Leadership is highly engaged, with consistent focus on coaching, accountability, and development through structured one-on-ones and daily execution rhythms. Clear expectations across sales, service, and operations create alignment on what success looks like. The organization provides exposure across multiple business functions, allowing leaders to build well rounded operational and commercial skill sets. High performance environment that rewards ownership, initiative, and results.

Cons

As a smaller, specialized retailer, organizational growth and upward mobility may take longer compared to larger big-box companies. Resources and infrastructure are still evolving in certain areas, which can require leaders to be more hands-on. High expectations and pace can create pressure during peak periods, requiring strong prioritization and resilience. Some systems and processes have a learning curve, particularly for leaders coming from larger, more standardized organizations.
