Pros

Working Part Time and eventually finding a new job.

Cons

After being placed on Till 1 for 8 hours + per day I decided to approach a manager to explain the difficulties in feeling motivated to come to work whilst being limited to such a mundane and repetitive task day in day out. Managements response was "you need to motivate yourself". Very empowering and clearly a deep understanding / appreciation for motivation and job enrichment. Never had a performance appraisal in two years. Constantly being told you can't do this or that task without any real justification. Was never asked about development or growth

Pros

Benefits are excellent, most people at the peer level are great. Clear performance expectations. Decent cross functional communication

Cons

Company leadership very European and doesn't quite understand the American consumer even after being in the US so long. Unreasonable expectations are the norm. No upward mobility unless you are European or speak fluent German.
