Pros

Get to see new tech

Cons

Too many kpi's and bickering between stores. Management can be quite numbers orientated rather than people orientated. No set structure to shift patterns and if request days off then seen as less available. Bonus scheme is just pants. All too much just for basic salary or 10p above minimum wage

Business Outlook

Pros

Great opportunities within the company: competitions, training, etc. Very financially rewarding if targets are met and if you work bank holidays. Along with great team spirit within the sales team!

Cons

Some targets are very trying - where the company says "tailor the solution to the customer" - if behind target this motto is completely abandoned and a sell anything to anyone approach is taken.

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.
