It's ok if you get a good store..

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great people, great technology to work with, good training programs and the opportunity to do extra specific courses with different brands. The company also often run competitions, one of which I won once, which was a nice perk!

Cons

Some stores are very old and dull-looking, which isn't a great environment for customers. Progress is very slow with regards to promotions. The job is seen as the be all and end all - life can wait.

Pros

staff uniform was not itchy.

Cons

there were minimal extra staff benefits for workers. tiny staff discount of 10%. change in culture of management was not looking at the effects of the staff, morale was shockingly bad, turn over was very very high. Due to the low levels of staffing set out training given was sparse at best as there was no time to train anyone. Level of service given to customers dropped noticeably.
