High Expectations, Low Reward

Sales consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The company caters for young staff who want a part-time job due to college or other responsibilities which makes it ideal for a student job, The company culture is very relaxed, kind of a work hard play hard thing. Salary is slightly above typical sales roles.

Cons

The commission system is terrible. Rather than rewarding individual performance, which is fair, they reward team performance, so even if your selling a lot one month, one person who's not performing could ruin your commission and demotivate you for the rest of the month. There is a lot of stores clustered together, which means that some stores just aren't busy, and that can be quite boring.

Pros

There are no pros really pay is poor and bonus is even worse

Cons

Not guided to do well but told have to get care plan if we don't then management don't even what to know you. Adding services to customers purchase by checking customer offers then lowering price of the item there buying then sticking loads of services on and saying it's free. Currys don't care about there customers only care about profit they are abit like are government.

Pros

Work in a retail environment that is selling interesting technology products and allows you to gather important retail knowledge for all.

Limited pay and not the most thrilling job to do full time. Can be boring or high pressure during peak times of the year to get sales targets and bonuses.
