Pros

Commission when targets are achieved

Cons

Area managers are unable to relate to the reality of the business, showing little/fake empathy. Expectations are unrealistic and teams are pushed to their limits at every level. The work load is too intense in the smaller stores and feedback is not taken by higher management or Head Office. Even when you deliver fantastic results, get involved in projects and become an expert in a field, the promotions are based on who you know and opportunities are rarely offered for those that do not work in London, the company also ignores the right to apply (they only use it as a tick exercise).

Pros

There aren’t many pros, pretty chill coworkers I suppose

Cons

Managment is a mess, filled with people who really don’t know what they’re doing and they have empolyees who’s sole purpose is being on their phones and not working, the “GM” is a wreck and doesn’t know how to properly soeak to people as she believes she’s above everyone, and regional isn’t much better
