Pros

There are SO many benefits to working in the John Lewis Partnership, including; Bonus, Discount and Leisure Learning... The rewards package is amazing.

Cons

After rapid progression from shop floor partner to team leader I was promised the earth in terms of development after I graduated, straight to section manager. However 5 months later and nothing. Development is inconsistent & opportunities minimal Happy to set development goals & not deliver their promises Most management have been there since 16-18 years old, means they have no external expose, i don't think their skills would be tolerated in another business
