Pros

Fantastic people, culture and benefits. Very supportive organisation. I would definitely return there. If you want to progress they give you opportunities to do so.

Cons

Some of the people have been there so long that they are set in their ways and are resistant to change. It can sometimes be a bit of a struggle to get them to see things differently

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
