Pros

Good for developing interpersonal skills

Cons

Pinpoint - Poorly implemented buggy piece of software which is counter productive as it wastes time New Bonus structure - Clearly in place to ensure that Bonus payments are minimised and the mad rush to the FTSE 100 is completed. Management - RGM Up do not understand store's views on the company when they should be listening as we're on the front line with our customers, management can not make a decision that lasts over 18 months Targets are very high and unreasonable, leading to questionable sales methodologies Staff turnover is higher with an influx of temporary part time workers Company is going backwards in terms of how they treat their staff and I am so happy I am getting off the sinking ship.

Pros

I would recommend Carphone Warehouse to those interested in starting a career in sales who are equally passionate about mobile technology

Cons

Limited, linear career progession. Not much training or encouragement to up-skill. Managers may often make seemingly impossible demands of recent hires without giving the feedback or guidance necessary to achieve the aim(s).

Pros

seeing the new technology come in, getting real bargain deals on clearance stock, making friends.

Cons

Rude and ignorant customers, lazy student staff only there for the beer money, salaried for 39 hours but expected to work about 50 hours with no overtime "because you are management", undue pressure from area managers to meet targets on redundant kpi`s, office politics, no transparency on feedback UP the chain.
