      Easy to go up the career ladder, experience depends on the staff you work with.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Competitive rate of pay (depending on the area you work in), easy to get promoted; I went from tills, to customer service, to cash office, to supervisor in a very quick space of time. Easy to get transfers to other stores, useful when a student. Good hours for students. Some stores had very positive leadership and good management, particularily Wood Green. Very good training given. If you have to do any overtime its all paid.

      Cons

      No benefits or staff discount given. Incredibly rude CEO, served him once and he was very ignorant. He had no clue what it was like working in the store or the conditions of working. Very poor management in the Flagship Store on Tottenham Court Road as well as a few stores in Hampshire. Some managers force you to work overtime. Very harsh discplinary methods. No graduate scheme.
