Pros

There were some great colleagues who inspired but unfortunately they left the business due to the dire culture created by an area manager.

Cons

Bullying culture. I witnessed an area manager belittle several department managers in front of customers and sales assistants. Complaints were made formally but brushed under the carpet. Managers are expected to work a minimum of 12 hours per day and they are located miles away from where they live or their nearest store. 60-70 hour working weeks with no work life balance. No praise or feedback for doing a good job but miss a target and your threatened with your job-constantly.
