Business Outlook

Pros

Great progression opportunities. Reasonable pay and discount.

Cons

Hours of work are extremely unsocial, I usually work 4 late nights a week which was never the case with other retailers I've worked for. Staff are worked way too hard, every single day. The pace and constant pressure is not healthy. Staff are expected to work miracles eg: tidy shop floor and great customer service while on the absolute minimum staffing level possible. Unrealistic demands from above to meet goals.
