Pros

The salary draws you in, that is a pro, some of the staff make your day bearable

Cons

Higher up. They have no idea what it’s like being on the shop floor every single day. They micromanage you on every single thing you do. It creates an awful atmosphere and makes you unmotivated. Then when you’re seen to be unmotivated, they’ll follow their ridiculous path to get rid of you. A current Head of Sales once told a Store Manager that everyone is just a replaceable number. People who have devoted so much of their effort and life into this company leave. The company is currently making more money than ever, but cutting more hours? They’ll tempt you in with a payrise, but it does not equate to what they put you through.
