Business Outlook
Pros
flexible hours, great team spirit and variety in roles on offer. no two days are alike, makes a refreshing change from similar employers. very good at treating people as individuals, and do support promotion from within as well as change of location.
Cons
lack of staff, the industry is in a downturn and this is leading to cutbacks, understandable but frustrating. customers expect every member of staff to be an expert in every section, some retail jobs are just shelf stacking and standards, but b&q employees are seen as expert decorators/plumbers/electricians/joiners etc, even if they are only employed to work on a till.
