Pros

The company sells a lot of great high end brands so you learn a lot about the product on the market. Depending on the branch co-workers are very supportive and helpful.

Cons

Pay. The company is very opaque about the commission/hourly pay structure. They make it sound like it's base + commission but it's not. You have to cover what you get paid hourly by your commission before you earn commission and if you don't cover your quarter you go into the negative for the next quarter. Also, you only get a commission check once every four months. Also, the benefits are very expensive if you have a family, which makes this job unsustainable for anyone supporting a family. There is also not enough administrative support. The company seems to be unwilling to pay for support positions so the sales and purchasing teams are often overwhelmed with work.
