Pros

Friendly sales assistant staff, Will change hours quite easily, Interview process is a breeze. Get good breaks at scheduled hours. Overtime usually available.

Cons

Mangers make you feel underappreciated, Will be shouted at if caught talking even if it is for a second on shop floor. The way overtime is distributed is silly and badly put together process. Very quick to discipline for illness and absence. No air conditioning so felt like you are melting everyday at work.

Pros

Staff are good, Some of the management are nice, Pay is good at Tottenham Court Road.

Cons

School environment. Managers treat you like its school. "Less talking more working". Senior managers treat you like dirt. You are just another resource to them. Never grateful. Some managers are so two faced. Will show you they are so nice and then do stuff behind your back that will make you hate primark.
