Pros

Some of the instore colleagues are nice

Cons

Upper management and head office don’t have a clue what there doing and probably never crossed the front door. They will take you for whatever they can and pay you minimal, when you ask for recognition your out. Buildings and equipment are a joke, maintenance is almost nonexistent and frankly dangerous. Pay is not near enough for the stress and workload they put on you. What they say publicly is an act, none of good will and spirit is for the staff.

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
