Allowed me to work part time during my a-level studies with the opportunity for further overtime possible.
Great training processes.
Opportunity to progress within the shop - I was promoted and able to gain supervisor experience.
Further flexibility, allowed me to return to my position during the term breaks from university.
Cons
Some members of staff who have worked their longer tend to be stuck in their ways.
Management can be dodgy. Some lead by example and some would just rather delegate.
Classic shop culture can sometimes become tedius and uncomfortable.

Hi there, thanks so much for the feedback, we'll make sure this is fed back. Have a great weekend. ^Scott
Team got on well, hours weren't particularly harsh (pay not particularly impressive either)
Cons
Overworked due to corporate ruthlessly cutting hours (while hiring more staff?), generally piling on more and more work to the store team without considering time constraints, absolutely no opportunity for advancement while a store manager is already there
