Pros

-Extremely friendly atmosphere, always felt like my line manager had my back -Very fast-paced, but I never felt like I was sacrificing my work-life balance -Intellectually curious work

Cons

-Due to how the company is performing things always felt uncertain - half the team ended up being cut a few months after I have left -Lots of travelling to different stores, but you end up being compensated for the inconvenience pretty fairly -Systems and HR is non-existent - I spent like 3 months trying to hand-in my P45 from a previous job and ended up being on an emergency tax-code for the time (which led to some liquidity issues as it massively taxes you)
