      Pros

      Succesful company within the retail business, friendly colleagues, semi-flexible work hours, london weighting, plenty of entry level opportunities for graduates

      Cons

      limited growth opportunities, processes are out-dated - very paperbased environment, work can be repetitive and unchallenging at times, strong influence by the german head office which makes things inefficient, high turnover of staff

      Pros

      Benefits are excellent, most people at the peer level are great. Clear performance expectations. Decent cross functional communication

      Cons

      Company leadership very European and doesn't quite understand the American consumer even after being in the US so long. Unreasonable expectations are the norm. No upward mobility unless you are European or speak fluent German.
