Once innovative firm - now in merger hell

Pros

Good for people who like working on many projects that may or may not have the experience for. This has an entrepreneurial 'we can do anything' attitude

Cons

Constantly changing goalposts - projects can go on for months and then fizzle out Fix it by Friday mentality - loves to short term fixes. Next to no long term solutions Merger with Dixons now feeling like a takeover, nit a 'marriage of equals'. Steady exit of very experienced CPW staffers who would have been future leaders.

Pros

its a good wage and the hours are flexible especially if you have other commitments. its also a constant changing environment.

Cons

Let's just say it's all about who you know, if you want to climb the career ladder you have no chance unless you're close to someone in a higher position than you. The majority of the men I've met in the job are completely disrespectful and sexist, my ex manager once tried to get me to send him a dirty picture and would continually text me until I replied. However, he still works there. Such a joke. They employ far too many men, I was one woman in a store of 12 male employees. I suffered constant sexual harassment from the manager and nothing ever came of it. There was no disciplinary actions taken against him. It got to the point I didn't even want to show up for work, in the end I left.

Awful

Pros

Pay rise after probation period. Commission after 4 months of receiving log in.

Cons

Terrible organisation. Worked there for almost 3 months, did not receive my log in details, did not get paid and still fighting for the money I'm owed. They only care about the sales you make, do not treat you like a person unless you meet the target. Severe lack of training before you commence the job.
