Pros

Gig leave, flexible schedules, working around instruments, commission pay

Cons

Everyone higher up at the company is so disconnected from what it's like in stores and keep cutting hours also creating more workload from stores. Unrealistic expectations. Saw 2 female employees get treated so poorly by both the company and customers in my time here. A lot of the other associates and the sales manager did not care about anything. Some very unhappy people working here.

Pros

Self-fulfillment if running a lessons program is apart of your end-goal

Cons

Pay rate doesn't match what they're asking for the role. You essentially need to run the entire program on your own until you hit a goal post that keeps moving.
