Inflexible, under-skilled and rude management.

Pros

Lovely team mates Very decent staff discount

Cons

Poor management in certain departments - lazy managers unable or unwilling to fulfill their role, rude and dismissive to fellow staff members (on shop floor), creating an unpleasant and even more stressful environment for the employees. The progression process makes little sense and often finds the hardest working employees unrewarded and the least deserving and unprofessional often given management positions. Although, unfortunately, this is often the case in many places of work.

Pros

The company has a great vision and culture. Every training and meeting is like a shot of adrenaline that paints this beautiful future. The team members that I met along the way have come from all walks of life, all bonded by our love of sharing sports. There's a great level of autonomy and support.

Cons

Decathlon is a retail operations-based company. As much as the company talks big on all of its goals and aspirations, in a scarce environment, it will prioritize the operations aspect. In this transitional period, there will be a decent amount of confusion and frustration. But I believe it is a necessary risk and change to adapt to the changing world.
