Pros

Always busy, team is close knit and friendly, good pay, found it easy to request holidays and 9 times out of 10 they'd be approved,

Cons

Management was poor some, I got talked down to a lot and almost bullied by senior members of staff, didn't always get recognition for the work I did, expected to stay way after your shift finishes to finish a task even if there's enough staff to handle it without you. Got a bit repetitive after a year of working there, left soon after. Not much chance for progression/further training unless someone suddenly quits and they needed a replacement.

Thank you for your feedback and comment. I'm sorry to hear you had a poor time with management. I hope you raised your concerns with your area manager of HR at the time as we have a zero toluene policy for bullying of any kind in the work place. ^Catherine

Pros

Team got on well, hours weren't particularly harsh (pay not particularly impressive either)

Cons

Overworked due to corporate ruthlessly cutting hours (while hiring more staff?), generally piling on more and more work to the store team without considering time constraints, absolutely no opportunity for advancement while a store manager is already there
