Pros
Create your own schedule with flexible rescheduling as long as you get the work done and communicate your needs. You are free to take personal calls as you work and step out as needed. Some Retail Supervisors (middle managers) are great to work with and genuinely care about you. This position can look good on your resume as you conduct B2B sales for several high-profile products.
Cons
High turnover, continued layoffs at multiple levels, and no job security. Low pay for the work, low (if any) commission on sales, and few advancement opportunities. 400+ miles a week on your personal car; you pay for all your own gas, the mileage reimbursement is pitiful, and a large portion of your commute is unpaid. These "fine print" cost-cutting measures mean several thousand dollars a year are ripped straight from your pocket. Constantly shifting expectations from internal management, clients' management, and store management, who all communicate poorly, all pull you in different directions, and all believe you are the problem. The excitement wears off fast. Store calls are constantly loaded incorrectly. On top of hitting sales goals, you perform hundreds of retail tasks daily across several stores, and everything you sell actively makes your life harder when it comes in. You are incentivized to fudge your merchandising numbers to hit KPIs—but if you are caught, you are fired. The work can get incredibly lonely. Your stores generally don't want you there, upper management doesn't care about you, and you may never meet your coworkers.
