Typical retail environment that offers commission

I fit people for golf equipment at my store. Hourly pay is a bit above minimum wage and there is opportunity to make commission. Management is great and is willing to work with my schedule. The job itself is a little boring now that I've been with the company for over 2 years.

Cons

Commission is only received on brand new, current generation equipment. The regional manager, when I see them, has an abrasive personality.

It was a job. Clothing sales for personal wear were an advantage. Getting to hit balls and putt while at work was enjoyable. I love giving golf lessons.

Fun job for a college student

Had blast working here when I was fresh out of high school. If you love golf you can't ask for a better job. Get to be around the newest equipment and a decent employee discount. Pay is not great, but a fun part time job.

Pleasant atmosphere

Stable environment, easily accessible from road, caring cooperative Managers. Always new products and promotions. Up to date p.o.s. No late hours. Lots of available work.

Friendly and helpful staff from management down to cashier

Good environment to work in. Managers are knowledgeable and very helpful if you run into any issues or problems. Advancement opportunities are available in short amounts of time.

Person who does minimal work has a job because they’re dating a fellow employee and are surrogate child to management. Experienced employees not valued.
