Pros

• Good network and relationships within close knit district structure • Decent employee benefits with discounts at sainsbury’s and argos • No two days the same, able to switch between tasks constantly so you never get bored

Cons

• Sainsbury’s don’t know what to do with Argos and it shows - have tried for years now to run a general merchandiser with their food operating model but don’t understand its a different market and just does not work • Tough to lead team when so little hours to give and no commission structure for non management despite colleagues being targeted on insurance selling • Sainsburys management teams often regard Argos store in store as burdens and their teams as pests. Really tough to build two way relationships.
