Pros

It's more consistent than agency jobs which students tend to do & afterall money is money. Good for your CV I guess; it's a high street giant. Experience is always good- it should make applying to fashion retail easier in the future. Can fit around you as they give 4 hour contracts (a day) yet there's almost always overtime.

Cons

Harder work than it should be as it's under staffed so sections are wide..you're alone doing so much yet may still find a manager tell you to work on your speed. Stressful to say the least. Tills= easiest but if you work at a section in a department, expect to still do the work you've left if you are asked to go on tills.
