Pros

15% staff discount, life insurance 5x salary, company car, phone and laptop. Good wage 25-30k plus bonuses.

Cons

Don’t get a minutes piece from top management. Phone non stop plus e-mails galore. Set unrealistic bonus targets. Everything that goes wrong is the area managers fault. Expected to drop everything at a moments notice. Day of or not. Silly youngsters as graduate management. Aggressive management show very little respect, and that’s right from the top!

Pros

15% discount Nothing else is a pro

Cons

Micro management I’ve never experienced in 10 years of retail management. They’re living in the stone ages in terms of technology. Hourly staff get paid to 15 mins so upper management will try and shaft your pay in the name of prod, no clock in/out machine so you’re reliant on managers clocking you accurately. Everything they do is just weird and backwards. They don’t believe in employee law, 11 hour rest period being the big one.
