Pros

Good balance of being in control of your work and managing your time great working in a team. Really do want to do the right thing for the colleagues

Cons

Your job will be 90% task based no real management as you with only 1 or 2 others. No progression available, if your good you will be moved to fix problem stores. Internal politics causes promotions to be based on diversity it is not inclusive in growth plans.

Pros

Team got on well, hours weren't particularly harsh (pay not particularly impressive either)

Cons

Overworked due to corporate ruthlessly cutting hours (while hiring more staff?), generally piling on more and more work to the store team without considering time constraints, absolutely no opportunity for advancement while a store manager is already there
